Led by Guardsman Recruit Saerandir
Attended by - Officer Cadet Leanne Melior
Distrusted Recruit Tingleith.
It was very quiet at the barracks today so I thought it would be the perfect time to do my last recruit task needed for promotion. Luckily two other guardsmen were around the barracks and offered to help.
We raced to the Orc fort and began slaying the orcs but we noticed there wasn't a brute amongst them. We fought our way to the dock side before one even appeared. We had left behind a trail of dead orcs which probably enraged the Brute into attacking us. With that one down we began looking for more and slowly began building a pile of shadow ore near the entrance of the fort.
Two more brutes down and we settled into an easy rhythm with Tingleith attacking first and swinging her axe around whilst Miss Melior and I stabbed or shot at the Brute whilst holding off any smaller Orcs that gathered around us.
It wasn't long before we had gathered enough shadow iron ore to haul back to the barracks and over five thousand gold to match.
