End of Night 12: Into the fort
"Back off, orc boy!" Kurjan Sawtooth the Orc Cleric orders Minmorc. He pushes in between Minmorc and the dwarf. "Makkal has proven himself useful enough in the past but you haven't proven yourself at all, yet!"
He then turns to the dwarf and ignores Minmorc.
"Alright, Makkal, I'll double your usual fee if the information is worth it. So, who is this knight, what is his plan and why do these guys keep talking about elves?"
The dwarf nods agreement to that deal and quickly explains what he knows.
"The knight is a human called Sir Jolimont Thrumble. He's a right pompous ass, rich enough to have plenty of influence at court, but he's a strong fighter and an experienced commander too. He's got about 40 human troops. Half of them are ex-soldiers and the rest are young lads looking for a chance to get rich in his service, 'cause he pays good money. He also managed to get a band of elvish archers to join him just for this mission, because they really hate all you orcs. They're going to be his artillery support but they split off from the main group several hours ago and I don't know what their plans are. The rest of them are sneaking up to the plateau here in the dark and will launch their attack just after dawn, when the sun is bright enough to dazzle you orcs so you can't shoot at them as they close in to attack the fort. He wants this fort so he can claim the lands around here as his own."
He gestures toward the south as he speaks of them sneaking up to the plateau and gestures toward the east when he talks of the attack planned just after dawn.
