Fyrtor has some luck picking out an orc to focus on. An older warrior who is slightly crippled seems to pay special attention to Fyrtor's tales and Fyrtor develops some relationship with the warrior, named Orluk. Brolin receives one last answer "From what I've seen, these orcs are more open to cooperating with humans than any I've ever heard of. It seems like a good chance. Goodbye son. I'll see you again."
Brolin receives "Hmmm... yes that is very troubling... That is strange that Iustia is moving toward war... I worked for a nobleman, Count Aral, who would have been very opposed to such a move. He was a very powerful but practical man and had great influence upon the Iustian throne. Maybe you should speak to him. He is likely attempting to defuse the situation and perhaps you could help."
Brolin receives an answer immediately "You did everything to help me. You were a strong young man and you're stronger now. Never forget that. Tell me more about what you've been doing recently. I can tell that you've been taking my sword around many places and using it a lot but little more."
Brolin receives the answer "It was Ivy, the gnome. She taught you."
Brolin receives a slight chuckle and the reply "Yes it is somewhat confusing. My soul isn't really here in the sword. But I can speak through it because my memories are attached to it so strongly."
The orcs don't love Fyrtor's choice of story but it's a small ship and there isn't much to do so perhaps they will give him another choice of story the next night.
Brolin receives answer again without delay. "Ah no... Helen isn't here in the sword. Both our souls are with Sarenrae though. Ah yes... your mother... She was the world to me. She dragged me out of my cups or I might have drunk myself to death. I loved tucking her hair behind the tips of her ears, with their slight points..."
With the sword linking him to Fyrtor's father, Brolin receives a stronger connection this time. "Yes, Fyrtor, I have been watching and I've seen you become strong. Far stronger than I ever was. These are troubling times you find yourself in." |
