A Dire Insult

 Share


Recommended Posts

Ugroth yawned and stretched out upon the sand. With a contented huff, he pulled himself to his feet and trudged outside to tend to the trees. Closing the door behind him, he glanced up, and noticed a sign nailed to the outside of his home.

Ugroth snarled, and ripped the wood away, snapping it in his bare hands.

He tossed the signs into the sea and turned back, drawing his hunting knife.

He ripped a strip of red wool from the bundle in his pack, and stuck the knife through it.

He then plunged the knife into the dirt where the signs had been, a clear insult and challange to those who had written them.

With a final growl, Ugroth took up his sword and lumbered away, intending to take out his anger on any undead that crossed his path.

Ugroth finished with the trees, crops and chicken, and went down to tend to the sheep.

He ground his teeth.

The red, yellow, and orange sheep were all gone.

Sumash was either suicidal, or extremely skahin' stupid.

Ugroth assumed it was the latter.

Out of anger, he turned and beat the skah out of a nearby sheep, which baa'ed in protest, before stomping outside to brood.

Jutra had gotten up earlier that day and saw the horrible signs on her home.

As her eye travelled over the rest of the signs on her cave she growled and started to rage over one that was missing.

The missing one lay smashed on the ground it was the one that had the Warlords Seal on it. Jutra saw red. That seal meant a lot to her - to her it was an honour to have it on her home and she was proud of it.

She could have cared less about what the vandals wrote, it was the smashing of the seal that enraged her.

After spending some time with the chickens, and then working on her cooking skills, nothing soothes the savage beast of anger like Klomping and Cooking, she was able to have a few rational thought on the matter.

This insult wasn't personal as neither she nor Ugroth had made any enemies of their known neighbours.

She knew she would need to report this to the higher ups in Sanjazel. The Warlord and Uzzgoth Lud had already been by to visit the homestead and both promised more patrols around the area, so informing them of this latest insult seemed proper to do.

Jutra made her way to Sanjazel as quickly as she could while avoiding detection of the undead minions that seem to always guard her path to the Capital.

Upon arrival she was met by Pok, whom she met the previous passing, she remembered him as the orc who liked to climb big cactus’. She explained why she was there and he asked that she show him the signs. Lucky for Jutra, Pok was part of the leadership of the orcs. She led him back to her home.

She showed him the signs and other evidence of previous attempts to get onto their property. He added his own sign to the wall.

Pok offered to get rid of a purple stone that another unwanted visitor had placed outside her fenced orchard with the intent to enter. Ugroth had cleverly rearranged the fences so the stone which neither could move was now located inside the fenced area. Pok using his bare hands smashed the stone into tiny bits. Jutra was impressed to say the least.

Pok stayed that whole passing in case the vandals returned which they didn't. He then departed the farm.

Although Jutra also noticed the missing sheep she didn't associate it with the vandals but she did notice that the cake she had set out to cool earlier that passing was gone.

((I'm not sure if screenshot's are to be used in the rp section))

((I often use screenshots to enhance the story. This is also to give physical evidence to any who might doubt me. I do not see why they would not be allowed. It's like a picture in a book. It helps you to visualise what has happened.))
