Licking their wounds, they disappeared overnight, covering overland terrain in the way that only disciplined orcs can. They were gone to the east again, to rest, recuperate, and plan how best to visit vengeance upon their enemies.Greppa felt cheated of some needed venting. Merideth was just relieved. Bellos, absorbing stories from Theralis soldiers, began to wonder what he'd gotten into.As the remainder of the summer passed, the Tattered Tribe returned (shortly after Breaking Cat left) and began guarding the Eastpass areas again. Winter began to set in, and plans for the Olympiad began to set in motion.Greppa and Merideth grieved briefly, for Athan would have been in many of the contests they would have wanted to see, but decided that the best send-off for Athan's spirit would be to live the Olympiad to the hilt.As the day grew nearer, Greppa also made sure that Captain Agina was prepared for an orc attack... He was one of many, of course - Theralis was in no way planning to leave the border unguarded, and soldiers were working and playing in shifts, to compensate.And then the celebration arrived, and spirits were high.</blockquote>
