When I looked back at my compatriots, I noticed Tark still appeared to be stunned, but far be it from me to suggest he was entranced by Nadia’s looks. Tark’s not like that, but he’s not like that , either. Actually, many of the orkish women he’s gone out with are darned close to pretty in my eyes, but that still puts them a couple of leagues below Nadia in looks. I’d even considered Tark’s offer to fix me up with one orkish knockout, but I changed my mind when I realized that with those tusks, an orkish love-bite could leave me needing stitches.
