[QUOTE="silentspace, post: 1220535, member: 14316"] Devan holds his bow, his arrow ready to fly. He calls for the caravan to stop. Mirena sets this in motion by calling down the line. It will take a while for the command to travel down the line, and Mirena doesn’t look like she’s about to stop until the whole caravan stops (that will take two rounds). Devan takes his eyes off the orcs for a moment to glance to the sides. He sees only more rain, mist, and hilly terrain. He can’t see very far. As the orcs advance closer and see Devan with his bow drawn, the leader bares his teeth and snarls angrily. You’ve heard stories of the natural aggressiveness that orcs display, and get the feeling that these orcs are not at all averse to fighting. Several of the orcs reach for their bows too, but their leader stops them. “I say hold!” Then turning to Devan, “Put bow away human! Unless you want fight!” His thickly muscled arm moves to the hilt of his great axe, but he doesn’t draw it. Then the orcs spot Etherial, and you see the bloodlust in their eyes. Several orcs reach for their weapons, eager to slay an elf, but the leader yells once again “HOLD!” Etherial retreats further up the caravan. The orc leader watches Etherial ride off, then turns back to Devan. “Why you threaten us? You want fight? Put bow away!” Then to Filbert and Zanock, “All weapons away! You want fight?” The orcs are now 75 feet away. You see eight of them. Turning back to Devan, “You very brave. How many guards you have?” [/QUOTE]
