(OOC-In RL my bath and my bed are calling me. :) )<br/><br/>"I'm single-because the human soldiers from  Barrthland killed my wife in the last great battle. Tina was her name. She was beautiful, capable at everything she did, and everything I could want in a woman, and now she lies six feet underground with her axe and a few grave goods for the Otherworld. And you are a woman worthy of this gift. I have another skin of my own, one of the things I took with me. Thank you for the apple, I finished my own fruit yesterday." He crunched into it with relish. "You know, some stupid humans think we only eat meat. Don't get me wrong, meat is really tasty but I'd get sick in the long term if I just had meat to eat. Of course not all humans are like that-and I'm not an outright human-hater-but many of them have no idea about us Orcs. They think we raid all the time, except when we are whipping slaves. Heh! We are like onions-we have layers. Have you ever wanted to just punch some human in the head because of what he said?" He finished the apple and let out a loud burp. "Oh, sorry, I should have answered your question quicker. There are three main routes out of here. One, the main path through the Wargtooth Mountains, leads to  Barrthland. I don't know the details, but I heard a rumour that a peace treaty will soon be signed to end the war and the border will be opened for trade again, the sooner the better. Then we have another that leads past the Mirrormere lakes and the Barrow Downs to Kuboloth, twistier and not so often traveled. And then we have the southern route to the Wall. East of here is the Purple Sea just two days walk away, but a berth on a ship is expensive. Where would you like to go?"
