Message: <blockquote data-quote="Nonlethal Force" data-source="post: 3337078" data-attributes="member: 35788">The trio advances slowly, with Errast staying several yards back from Maris and Aekalos.  After creeping forward for about ten minutes they come upon a significant orc-made clearing in the thinner woods.  So far, they have managed to escape detection, although one of the major dangers is that most of the trees are thinner trees like birch and ash.  There are few thick trees like oaks to hide behind.The clearing seems to have very little organizational mind behind its construction.  Houses are set up at almost any angle compared to others around it.  Most of the houses seem to be of a stone and mud construction - almost a makeshift adobe.  The rooves look to be made of a grass and mud mixture.About the only thing that does look planned is a large fire pit in the center of the village.  Although it is difficult to see the pit completely on account of the weird angles of the houses, there do look to be several skeletons lying around the fire pit.  It is unclear as to wether or not the skeletons are human or animal remains.  There appears to be several large wooden tripods constructed on opposite sides of the pit.  Between each pair of tripods, a long thin wooden rod rests across the tripods (and therefore across the pit).  Next to the tripods on the far side of the pit there are several platforms that look big enough to have several people stand on at the same time.As far as population, there are only a few orcs milling about.  Those that are outside seem to be sharpening weapons and dressing various hides - some of which could well be aromor.  What looks to be strange is that about half of the houses have goblins chained outside the front door.  The goblins seem to be on leashes that extend from their necks to the front doors of the house which has it chained.  None of the goblins are making any noise whatsoever.</blockquote>
