1. Start

We believe the human raiders are some kind cult. But unfortunately, that is all we know. Surely you will be able to give us more information.

Finishing her warm-ups she pulls a chair out and climbs into it.

"No way they don't know of each other at this point, might even be working for the same people. Can't see two completely different groups both coming to the conclusion that they wouldn't win against the other, somebody is always gonna claim to be stronger. "

She pauses for a moment before continuing.

"Don't know why you would make an agreement with somebody instead of just beating them down and taking it all for myself honestly."

Burgermeister's Meeting Room

As miss Estelle says I would fathom that whoever is leading the raiders, and the Orcs are one in the same or in cahoots with each other. Probably this situation will get worse with time.

"I’ve seen different groups work together for a lot of reasons. Usually each group hopes to grow stronger than the others so it can take charge."

"I propose we find the cult members as soon as possible. Once we know what their cult is about, we may be able to convince them that the orcs are the real enemy."

"We don't exactly know where they are though."

"We could always just go to location of their recent attack and try to track them. I doubt they've been careful about hiding their whereabouts."

"I too was of interest in where they had come from but the last merchant that reported much seems to have disappeared in town. It makes one wonder about the safety here. This mess must end.

"Hmmm. And if the orcs show up before the humans, flip the plan? Convince the orcs that the humans are the enemy." Selbi taps her finger once on each side of her other palm.

"Or better yet, get both groups to go away from these roads."

"Away from the roads -- and into the graveyards. I find a sharp sword gets the quickest results."

"So, do we all agree with Garrosh's idea to track the bandits from the most recent ambush?"

"Don't see too much of an issue, if we don't run across either group first."

Estelle hops out of her chair and starts towards the door.

"Gonna do some shopping before we go."

"Looks like today's meeting is closed. I would suggest you all meet up at Strike Inn tomorrow."

"That sounds fine I suppose. Tomorrow morning at the Strike Inn it is."

Selbi gives a quick nod and hops off the chair to leave.

Davros nods Alright, then see you tomorrow. and after a stretch that makes his shoulders crack, the hunter leaves the room, looking around the settlement, asking about useful fauna and flora that he could scavage for some extra coin.

Garrosh leaves as well.

On his way out the door, Spraint asks, "Bugermeister, what is the name of the merchant who disappeared? Does he or she have family or friends in town?"

Spraint says to the others as everyone leaves. "I’m going to find Joe’s General Store and talk to Jonathon. You’re welcome to come me if you want."

"Jonathon, my name's Spraint. I'll be quick because I can see you're busy. I am sorry to hear that your brother is missing. I have to travel the road myself soon. What does he look like, in case I see him?"
