| Part 16 - Orc Busting... Attempt One |
|
| I was dreading this moment... the moment where I would have to face the wrath of the Orcs. Well... my whopping 50 points of armor due to digger clothes and magic items didn't do a thing, I had previously discovered, against orcs... so I just loaded for strength. It works, one on one. The extra 40 damage means Orechippers first attack combo is usually the Orcs last. Sure, if the orc gets a swing in... I'm toast. But that's life in the Colony. Orcs on the road defeated, it was time to go to the top. I let Ur Shak shake and bake the orcs up top... as they are exceptionally tough, even for orcs. |

| Being the nice guy that I am, mind you, I DID jump in at the end against the last orc warrior. But I got between Mr Fireball and his target as I dropped the last one. Ur Shak expressed his gratitude by giving me a limited duration light spell. Thanks a lot, Ur Shak. Cultural misunderstandings aside (He insists, off camera, that lighting a stranger on fire is a show of respect for their perceived toughness) he sent me on my merry way to go and get the Ulu Mulu. Contemplating for almost half a second running across the orclands in the dark, I used the water mage rune. |
