They took a female guard and Pinna - if this was a raid for women, why not just pillage the whole town? This was it though - her mind was made up. Come dawn, Larissa would mount up and pursue the orcs.<br/><br/>"Increase your patrols numbers for the foreseeable future," Larissa said. "The White Tusks...they're as the stories say." Gritting her teeth, Larissa motioned to the guardsman that had arrived with Giselle. "Let's check the bridge - confirm your suspicions. If this was a pleasure raid, more houses would have been broken into. They were after Pinna specifically..." The bleeding from her wounds had slowed, but she felt the dampness seep into in her hair and into the gambeson she wore beneath her chainmail. She needed rest, but Larissa was the last person to make the suggestion for herself.
