Quest: Hunt for Food!
Current Activity: Talking to Vola [@Unkown58][/center]

Vola! That was her name. Gren was glad to see that she was being so cooperative, he was afraid he was going to have to bully her into working with her. She seemed to have the same idea as he did about getting some rope to work with, so Gren figured that's what they should look for first. As Gren was about to lead another search, he almost got ran over by a running orc! A memory of a massive truck running into him flashed in Gren's mind and he froze. Fortunately the runner managed to avoid the two children and Gren came back to his senses. "What... Huh?" Gren looked to see where the runner was going, but alas, the orc was too fast and was out of sight before Gren could process what he was doing. But in exchange, Gren did spy three orcs sitting around a fire, eating and talking. Gren's mouth salivated at the smell of roasting meat. Even if it was just rat meat, it smelled delicious. Better than the usual watery slop that got fed to the babies. Didn't even have any seasoning!

He also heard the orcs talking about some work that could be done. Finding wood and ore for the Bowbh, who Gren recognized is the clan's main craftsman. They'd have to go into some caves though, but that was fine. If Gren remembers correctly there could be some interesting things in the cave they could kill, as well as grab those ores. Not to mention those mushrooms that Gren was thinking of grabbing were also in caves! He could kill three birds with one stone. Or two orcs with a bad decision. Could go either way.

Speaking of bad decisions, Gren spotted some stuff around the camp that he could grab. Oh sure, it's nothing that the orcs threw away, but it could be stuff that Gren could still nab. Useful stuff. However there wasn't a way for Gren to grab any of it without getting spotted, even if those three orcs were just lazing about right now. No doubt they'd be roused to action if they spot him nicking their stuff. So he had an idea. Since Gren was too big to be sneaky, he could be a distraction while Vola grabs something useful. Patting the orc girl's shoulder, Gren told her his plan.

[color=ed1c24]"Psst. Here's wat I'm thinking. I'm gunna go talk to tha orcs, distract em a bit. While they looking at me, you go nab something useful. Like that axe, or the bag with tha belt. I'll have em looking the other way for like a minute, while you grab the stuff and run. You ready?"[/color] Gren wasn't really going to ask Vola if she even wanted to do this, or had any other plans. Moments like these you really just had to act on your feet and think fast. Besides, doing it this way means that ultimately it was up to Vola what she wanted to get. Maybe she doesn't grab either and gets something that Gren thinks is useless. Regardless he'll just have to roll with it: better that one of them succeeds than both of them failing.
