Onward: Orange

[voidtreckermods]

It takes the best part of the first couple of days to get the city fully evacuated. The merchants and younger farmers get going first, leaving the more stubborn and older citizens to be helped up the cliff and to the hills beyond. The longer they leave it the more dangerous the city gets, they will meet more goblins. The goblins try and stop the evacuation, some are clearly trying to sabotage the city itself, attempting to light fires and wreck houses.

Once they have climbed the cliff path they will hopefully not meet many goblins on their travels but it is still a risk. There are caves and copses to spend the night and small game to hunt if anyone can get far enough away from the herds. Most of the problems come from those they escort, it’s hard to get herds over boggy marsh land and the going is slow.

(OOC: This is designed to be a catchall event post for Orange team for threads after the initial fight until the final challenge/approach to Um'i'les on day 11)

At least they were crazy for the right reasons this time. Still, Fëanor would gladly never do this kind of crazy again. It doesn't mean he would shy from doing it, it's just, what's the best word it, well, call it a personal preference.

Yes, and quite a lot of it, I'm afraid.

He tries to laugh but what comes out sounds more like a series of hisses...and it hurts. Not surprising but not pleasant either.

I hope that others had a safer passage.

Not exactly.

And we should check on the rest of your team once we reach the summit.

He has sent Reigen with the first group of shepherds so hopefully, the man should be fine. He hasn't seen the kids, Conan, Eva, Kaito, for a while but he's almost sure they didn't linger either. And the spider... of course, the spider was there too.

Yes, good place to end, and a good ending! XD

Nothing like being crazy for the right reasons! They'll most likely have other opportunities for such blessed insanity, too. This train is liable to take them anywhere and get them into any situation imaginable. Curufin isn't partial to risking being incinerated, but he'd do it again.

We'll check the first aid kits when we get back and see what supplies are in them.

He listens to his father's laugh and smiles, though he doesn't try to laugh in response. He pats his father on the shoulder and grins proudly at him.

We did kind of jump into the most dangerous possible situation, and I don't see any of my teammates around here, so I guess they chose to help out in less dangerous situations. Yes, we'll see what happened to the rest of the Orangies after we get up to the top of the cliffs.

The rest of them were not as crazy as the two Fëanorians; not even the spider. They'd all be up there somewhere, and they'd all be safe.
