Ellisaria smiles.

"Recruitment."

"Of other orcs?"

Permalink

"Yes."

Permalink

"Might take a while to be really effective - depending on what you're going for, though."

Permalink

"Time is one thing I am not in short supply of."

Permalink

"I'm not too surprised; time might allow your enemy to build his armies and get entrenched where he is, but if that's not a major concern to you..."

Permalink

"That works both ways. And you are not the only piece I have to move."

Permalink

"Fair enough."

Permalink

"I will leave targets to your discretion. If you require materials, armor, weapons, precious metals, promises of sanctuary, these I can provide."

"Those'll be extremely helpful, yeah. Orcs aren't all that different from men, in the end. I can think of a few well placed people - populations, too. Sauron gets a lot by promising a world where they can live wherever they want without fear; I imagine a place to settle and help learning how to settle there - as pastoralists or gatherers or farmers - would go a long way."

"You may lead anyone you gather here to begin with. I will determine if further relocation is necessary at a later date."

Permalink

"Alright. Thanks."

Permalink

"Do you require anything at present?"

Permalink

"For now - just a place to rest. Before I leave, though, I might take you up on some bribes to bring with me."

Permalink

"If you tell me what would be appropriate now, I can have them ready."

She lists a variety things off the top of her head.

Permalink

"I will see what can be done. The servitor will show you to suitable accommodations." She gestures and one of the earth elementals rumbles up to stand near Agon.

Permalink

"Thanks."

Permalink

"It is little trouble. Have a pleasant rest."

Permalink

And she heads off, after the servitor.

Ellisaria shifts back to her dragon form and stretches.

"Productive enough, I think."

Permalink

"Yeah; worth our time, at least."

Permalink

"We shall see what comes of it."

Permalink

Stretch. "That cockroach gets more and more annoying."

Permalink

"Yes. I think casting a wider net for allies will be my next focus. The Gondorians, the horsemen."
