Thread: After the War (Razgriz x Lagertha)

Orgoth breathed quite silently for one so large usually those of his stature snored as if a team of lumberjacks worked through the night to clear a forest. However, his kind had developed oversized airways to both increase intake during exertion and to keep themselves silent through the night. Soon, the room changed to indicate the rise of the new sun, a mix of oranges and reds shining brilliantly through the room to indicate it was time. Not that it mattered, for the giant seemed to spring to life almost instantly still wearing his armor from the day before, he picked up his twin blades and proceeded to join the Queen. Miwa, Ko and Rai'thi were also getting ready thankfully, the wards around the village deterred most from looking at it let along going near it. However, should an Order Weaver manage to detect the ancient arcana...That would be trouble. Regardless, they soon saw the giant coming towards Tiri'ol as well. Well? Bet those beds were more comfortable than the dirt your tribe had to use, right? Ko then shouted, earning a stern glance from both Miwa and Rai'thi. What? It's an honest questi--- She cut off as Orgoth stood over her, the light of the early morning sun making his already indomitable aura even more sinister. The shadows gave his form a more ominous appearance, something straight from the depths of the abyss. Ko seemed more than a bit timid at this, but then Orgoth spoke I honestly didn't think they would hold me, but I slept quiet well. Excellent craftsmanship. Miwa then coughed, turning to address the Queen, Good morning, Your Grace! Young Yuit! I pray your sleep was relatively uneventful? Of course, he knew better than anyone that she still suffered nightmares from those horrific days. Not that anyone would blame her Miwa himself had been alongside Tiri'ol from the beginning, and did everything in his power to make sure they reached the central village - the village where the eldest and most powerful of the Nine-tailed resided - unharmed. And despite this brute being an uncivilized beast, he was happy that Orgoth seemed to genuinely want to honor the pact between their tribes. Mommy didn't sleep! That bad Priest meanie gave her nightmares again! the young one-tailed declared, a cheek puffed with indignation. Yuit! I don't think... Rai'thi started to say, but then Orgoth of all people interjected, Nightmares are not always a bad thing. They remind us of what hides in the shadows, of the things that wish to kill and hurt us. And then he clanged his swords together, a harsh tone in his voice, And there is only one thing we can do to those things Kill. Them. Back! Well, at least they could rest easy knowing Orgoth would probably be the first to run into the fray without hesitation. But Yuit, frightened anew by the big monster's demeanor, crawled and hid behind the Queen, golden hues peering frightfully from the locks of her hair. Worry not, little one I would never turn my blade against a child. That disgusting act is reserved for cowards of the Order, Just as I protect your Queen, you too fall under my guard. Orgoth declared proudly, Yuit doing little except shouting, I don't want your protection, you ugly beast! YUIT! SHOW SOME RESPECT! cried out one of the maidens, a look of pure exasperation crossing her pretty features. Instead of getting worked up, Orgoth just let out a low rumbling laugh. Hahaha, this one is strong, I can see it! the titan declared loudly, giving a barking laugh right after. Mama Loina, do they really make people this big? Mister, can you do that burp again? That was really funny! Do we get protected too? The Order scares me! It was honestly heartening to see such youth their rambunctiousness reminded him of the pups in his former camp. Fiery, full of life and wonderment, always looking for something to satisfy their curiosity. One thing Orgoth did see was that it was criminal to keep them in walls how were they going to learn anything stuck in here? But then again, he was comparing them to Iron Wolves' kin. He had no doubt any of his people's young could best any of the Kitsune. Chuckling, he then said, Would you believe there are things out there bigger than me? No way! Mommy says it's not nice to lie! Aye, it's true though! Orgoth countered, adding Taller than the workshops, and it sitting down would cover half this village alone! But we Iron Wolves are crafty and can fell these beasts with but one swing of our swords! So trust me, none of you have to worry at all! Of course, he was embellishing a little bit for the children's sake a Yaui Goa could be taken down like that, but only if the hunter knew where to strike.
