Orc Encampment

When you reach the forest, you suddenly find yourselves in front of a vast Orcish encampment. Hundreds of blackpelts are lounging, playing dice or polishing their weapons. The whole thing resembles an imperial guard regiment so much, you have to look twice to be quite sure its really an Orc army you see. They, on the other hand, do not seem to take any notice of you, though occasionally, one of them looks your way… Do you

turn around or

walk on?


Slowly and as inconspicuously as you can manage, you move on. No one seems to care about your presence. Only when you are in the middle of the encampment, four Orcs approach you casually. Do you

Go on anyway?

Start running?

Turn around now?


You stop after a few paces, as your running appears to have drawn the attention of some dozens of Orcs in your immediate vicinity, which, presumably, was not your intention. And you can’t run away from a few hundred opponents, not when they’re all around you like that…

Without showing any kind of open hostility, the four warriors stop in front of you and size you up. One of them addresses you in harsh, but easily understood Garethi. “You want to enter Lowangen, right? No problem there. We let anybody in. That only works in our favor. Give us your baggage and weapons. Your armor too, of course, and nobody will get hurt.”

“I guess, we don’t have a choice…”

“And if we just turn back?”

“Quite right. Let’s have your baggage, arms and armor.”

Fight

Turn back

or continue toward Lowangen?


Boy, that’s a bright idea, starting a fight at odds of one against one hundred…


The Orcs search your backpacks, piling them up to a small heap.

While one of the Orcs is sorting your baggage, a shaman approaches and beholds it suspiciously. “Matchick stuff dantcherrrouss!” the shaman suddenly hisses, where upon the Orc seems to be scared and puts some of your items back gingerly.

After all you are allowed to pass the Orcs.


“It’s getting too hot for me here”, [NAME] says, “I’ll turn back!”
Do you follow [NAME] example and turn back too?
