The Eigth Caravan

Videric loaded few more packs of Flour to his new pack horse. He would have never thought that he would be delivering flour, but now there was tons of it to deliver. Dardan Brook, the mayor of Deepwater had hired him to deliver the shacks, and as a merchant he would do what he has been paid to do.

When Videric arrived to Spiritwood with his back horse there was already the usual crowd waiting for the caravan to began. This time everything was set without troubles and the caravan set towards Deepwater in time (well about, at least).

The tale of the travellers towards Deepwater was merry until a short while after leaving the camp near Britain, orc forces were spotted. There was to be trouble once again.

Orcs! 		After wounding his foot by slipping to horse dung, Videric was leaning to a staff and was in no mood to run away at the sight of orcs. As the orcs came Videric gathered his courage and he stepped forward to speak to the chieftain.

"What ye want", he asked from the large and fearsome looking orc.

Answer was no surprise really: "Tribuuut!" and a lot of "yubs" from smaller orcs.

Videric tried his best to work out the price but he had no luck as suddenly someone started the fight and blood was everywhere.

Luckily once again Orcs were outnumbered and forced to retreat, but it was by no means easy. If only the rumoured Ogre Lord who supposedly was their fortress would have been with, the outcome might have been different.

After this the caravan continued slowly towards Deepwater and only momentarily stopping at the guardsmen militia on their way. And so once again Deepwater was reached.

At Deepwater Videric met the mayor and together they delivered the flour to Lady Amika's bakery, where the good bread of Deepwater was made. After getting paid by the mayor, Videric headed to Owl's Eye to count his gold.
