Legend
With the orc chief dead and the rest in awe of your dominating will, they agree to follow you. One good thing about greenskins, is all you have to do is prove yourself tougher than the leader and the rest will fall in line regardless of being one of their own or not. While it's far from being a real "army" you are feeling slightly giddy with power as you enter the old chief's tent.
One of the goblins, Bogrot decides to take it upon himself to ingratiate himself to you, by informing you on what the old chief was up to before you killed him. He apparently had the same idea you had and was going to attack Altberg. While Bogrot begins his string of sycophancy, you turn your attention to Azoth who's speaking again.
"Well I suggest you start getting this sorry bunch organized for the big attack on your village." Azoth suggests.
"Heh, I doubt if I'd need to do that much more, it's not like my village is full of warrior types."
"That may be the case, but you haven't been there for a year or so, who knows what changes have happened? Not to mention it couldn't hurt to be extra prepared."
"I suppose you might be right, but again I doubt if I'll need to do that much more." You say outloud.
"Um, who yooz talking to chief?" Bogrot asks.
"Nevermind! And don't question me ever again!" you say and slap Bogrot who scurries away from you a bit.
"Get back here you idiot. Now tell me more of what your former master had planned for the attack." you order Bogrot who approaches you cautiously.
"Well, uh the old chief said he wuz planning to get an ogre tribe to help us, but Bogrot thinks the old chief wuz too scared to actually go through with it. Bogrot thinks da old chief woulda just attacked without their help. Bogrot think we could take the village without big ogres anyway. Ogres eat up all the food and sometimes us!"
"Well, having some ogres would tip the balance in your favor. Though keeping them under control would be even harder than the rest of the greenskins." Azoth says.
"What else Bogrot?"
"Well uh dere's a shaman. One Ear. He's a bit of a loner though. He's really strange. He left the tribe a few months ago and said something about visions. Last we knew he was heading in the direction of a lake east of here. Dunno if he's there or not. Da old chief told us to try to look for him, but the last scouts sent in the direction never returned so he told us to stop.
"Could be a wild goose chase or even a lot of danger involved, but the potential of having some extra magic on our side wouldn't be unwelcome. However you might also consider the possibility of trying to train these brutes yourself. It's not as if you're unskilled and you could definitely teach these barbarians something." Azoth adds.
"Might be a hell of a lot easier too." You say, meanwhile Bogrot is trying to get your attention.
"WHAT?!" you ask in annoyance.
"Bogrot sorry to interrupt you talkin' to yourself but um there wuz one more thing."
"Well spit it out."
"Well Bogrot knowz the old chief and orcs in general think we goblins are just useless in battle and Bogrot wanna say, dat's not true! We do all the scoutin' and dangerous stuff like dat! If it wasn't for us, dey wouldn't know all da tactics and stuff!"
"Is there a point to all this?"
"Yes! Yooz not an orc, and Bogrot wuz thinkin' maybe you'd place a little more faith in us "
"What do you mean?"
"Well us goblins is more sneaky an' smart! Da old chief didn't think dat sneaking into the village to sabotage stuff would be useful. Maybe we could even place traps an' stuff. Battle just ain't about hittin stuff in da head."
"Ha ha ha! Out of all the tribes and you pick one that has uppity goblins that think they are deserving of their lowly status as fodder. Do what you will, but I wouldn't even bother listening to this little green fool. These greenskins are usually too incompetent to carry out complex types of warfare successfully despite big ideas that may enter their heads sometimes."
