## Plot

The three hide from the orc patrol, crouched by some boxes. Periwinkle hears the orcs discuss the flesh of different creatures. Leo mimes to the others, and Periwinkle doesn't understand. Greg thinks Leo is there to help him. There is a good deal of confusion. Leo uses Message to ask the other two if they're also there for the weapon, because he is there for that reason. Greg responds "No," and the other two believe them. Leo asks Greg for his help, magically, and Greg agrees. Greg takes out his lute and starts playing.

The orcs stop talking and Leo unsheaths his daggers, hiding among the boxes. Periwinkle cracks his knuckles. He sees that the orcs have stopped, and when Greg pokes his head around he suggests, magically, that one of them has confessed his love to the other. The orc that was suggested to punches the other in the stomach, waking that one from Greg's fascinate. That orc turns his head to face the uncovered Greg and Periwinkle.

The orc roars angrily and throws a javelin at Greg, and draws a falchion as he charges towards the two. Periwinkle gets closer than the orc expected, and is surprised as he is unarmed by him, then punched.  He crumples to the ground. Greg continues to fascinate the orc with his lute, and when he gets close enough he takes him out with it.  Periwinkle keeps the Falchion.

The three discuss what to do with the weapon, but are interrupted by a massive creaking sound across the city. In the gnomish section of the city, in the warehouses, they see a giant wooden construction erected. It seems like the roar of a dragon in the distance is also heard, supplementing the rumour that Damian Eaton has a pet dragon, from the keep.  The dragon roars again while the boys bicker, and the orc camp is in chaos. In order to infiltrate the orc camp Periwinkle dons the orc guard's outfit and Greg turns into an orc magically. Leo endeavours to hide behind them.

*Will twice Leo's size be enough? Find out next time...*
