Orc hunt with New Recruits

Objective
To rid the Orc fort of it's nasty inhabitants and to show what the Baronship is all about to the newly recruited guardsmen.

Those who attended
Leader: Valiro, Scout Corporal
Ryan Greystone, Grenadier Sergeant
Griffith, Watchman
Talon, Watchman
Odenetheus, Disciple
Troy, Gaurdsmen Recruit
Sakin Laterali, Gaurdsmen Recruit

Just as the new recruits (Troy and Sakin) slipped on the last of the Baronship uniform, Valiro appeared and called us all to cleanse the Orc fort. This opted as a perfect opportunity for the new recruits to start off their service for Cove. We then all lined up outside the city gates of Cove to wait further instructions.

We were not even within the Orc fort barricade when attacked by all sorts of the nasty, smelly, greenskins. It was a good lesson on healing as well as the new recruits and some of us veterened guardsmen were bombarded by a whole host of foul and ugly Orcs.

After the feirce battle at the gates of the Orc fort, we ventured into enemy territory but to our dismay, or I'm sure for some us our comfort, we were not greeted by anymore of the beasts until reaching the depths of the fort, where plenty were still lurking about, probably digesting the latest of their daily catches.

As the Orc dead lay all around us, Odenetheus demanded that the dead corpses be burned so as to spiritually clean the odorous place of the evil. Thankfully to ease the Father's mind, Ryan hurled a fire bomb onto the dead and cleansed the evil but not the smell.

But look at the tight formation of us all in the midst of all this chaos...the new recruits did well in catching on to orders.

After reaching the back entrance to the fort and slaying and burning many of foul beasts we came upon a boat that would surely take us back home with a bit of good sailing and commanding by Ryan, although he did almost run us aground and he hit another boat and initially docked the boat so that we would have to fly a good twenty feet to solid land
but he did get us back home.
Of course, we then all forced marched back to the barracks where gold was collected, a little over 9000 crowns, and were then dismissed.
For the new recruits, I sincerly hope that this little hunt was indeed educational and at the same time inspirational for ye to go on many a more hunts with us to deeper and darker and fouler and harder and bloodier and downright more insane, and.....well I guess ye get the idea.  Good job all new recruits! Keep yer training up and stick with us through thick and thin and I promise ye that your lives with be richer and more fulfilling.
