A/N : Follows Last Chance

A hail of arrows rained down from the dark sky.

The defenders were good. Too fucking good.

The blasting powder had blown a hole in the wall. Orcs were scrambling through the breach.

Ragduf yelled, “Shields up! Over yer heads if you want to live!”

His troop were well drilled, locking their shields together, advancing in tight formation.

Ragduf saw a nearby youngster trip and fall.

A kid straight from the breeding pens,

Untrained. Terrified.

Ragduf hauled him upright by his steel collar, grabbed a shield from a dead Dunlending and shoved it at him

“You’re with my lads now!”

I love your take on orcs being professional soldiers.

If I was an orc soldier I'd want Ragduf as my leader!
