Irime had dried off rather quickly. It was only about an hour or so later that she was able to put her gear back on  except for her shoes. She pulled out a pair of sandals and hung the shoes by the laces off of her horses' pommel. Her hair still hanging about her face she began combing it out and she walked along the bank going northwards. She was well in shouting range to Kreneas if she needed him. Her hair was almost totally dried and she was rebraiding it as she walked.

Something in the air made her stop, the hair on her arm stood up and she drew her bow and grabbed an arrow. It was at that moment that she saw the small child. He was on a ledge by the water. If he fell it was at least thirty feet to the ground. Her breath stopped the instant she saw the orc nearing the child. She aimed and shot an arrow at the orc. Turning towards where Kreneas was she yelled. [color=f6989d]"Kreneas! Orcs! Hurry!"[/color] She ran hurriedly over the pathway getting closer to the child from below. She needed to keep the orcs away from him.

Swinging over to the ledge just below the child on a vine like Tarzan,  she shot another arrow and this one struck the orc's shoulder just as another orc appeared behind it. The roar it shrieked in pain frightened the toddler and he started crying in terror. The baby saw Irime and he got closer to the edge, he was trying to get to her and away from the orcs. Irime grabbed the baby as he jumped or fell towards her. She was looking downwards with the baby in her arm's grip when the vine broke. Instinctively, Irime curled up around the toddler to keep it from taking the initial hit of the ground. 

Apparently the two orcs didn't think the baby was worth getting shot over so they went on their way.
