I woke up the next morning. I looked outside the tree and saw nothing was there. I moved the wolf rib cage and palm leaves out of the way.I quickly grabbed a palm leaf and folded it into a bowl. I ran to the river filling it with water, I made sure nothing was sneaking up on me and ran back to the tree hole.
I got back and covered the entrance back up. I went to wear Diana. I set the water down and checked her temperature. She wasn't hot or cold so I hoped she wasn't sick. 'Orcs probably have different biology' I grabbed the water and placed it near her mouth. She slightly opened her mouth and drank it.
"Good at least I know you're alive." I drank the rest of the water. I made sure Diana was all set before going back out. I went out and dragged some bushes in front of the tree just in case. "Ok vick, you're going out, alone, it'll be fine…. Probably ``I went towards where the alligator died. Like the wolf all the mea ton it was nearly gone. I checked to see if there was anything I could use.
As I looked I found a couple things. I took the claws and all the teeth. I also took the skull.
I didn't plan on wearing it, as it was too big. But it was strong enough to tank several punches from Diana with no injury. I searched a little more and found a small gem in front of the tailbone of the gator.
I picked it up and walked back to the tree. I came in, placed everything down and covered the entrance back up. Diana was awake by now and was picking up the gauntlets I made. "Oh hey, Diana, as you can see I made some armor for your arms so that doesn't happen again." She gave me a small smile and picked them up. She put them on and closed her fist.
"Lets try them out really quick" we both went out and went to a close tree. She threw a punch and the tree shook but her hand had a bruise on it. She then put on the gauntlets and threw another punch. This time the tree had a dent in the middle where she punched it. She took off the gauntlets and there was a small scratch on it. The gauntlets on the other hand weren't even affected.
-increased affection with orc warrior-
-unlocked connection with orc warrior-
I opened my book and saw a new page filled with information about diana.
-race Orc-
-Name Diana-
-allies- [vick]
-skills-
[orc strength] [bash] [connection] [beginner regeneration]
It didn't go into much detail stat wise. Aside from a brief description on race it didn't show much. I closed the book and put it up. 'How have I not lost this book yet?' I saw Diana punching the tree while smiling. "Yo, not to ruin your fun or anything but you're still injured" she looked at me confused before she looked like a light bulb went off in her head.
She took off the gauntlets before unwrapping the makeshift bandages I made. I looked at her arm and saw there were only some scars left. 'I'm really hoping that I actually helped and didn't just burn her for no reason' she must've read my mind because I got a message.
[user diana made mind link] 'thank'
[mind link disconnected]
After I got the message from Diana she fell down. It must have taken a lot out of her because she was breathing hard on one knee. I can't even blame her, she literally connected with my mind when she can't even speak. I helped her up and gave her one of the pears to eat.
She ate it and rested for a while before we went back. I moved the bushes out of the way and saw a girl going through our stuff.
She looked up at us and pulled out MY bone club. She tried to attack us but fell over. We both looked down at her and saw she had a deep gash across her back and was bleeding. I looked towards Diana before she simply picked her up and threw her out. "Hey we can't just do that" she glared at me. "You know what maybe you're right"
She went and laid down and I went outside. "Sorry, but you stole from the wrong people" so maybe I was doing a little much but I took my bone club. . . . . . and everything else of value. She only had her book and a blue orb. I took both and moved her towards the river.
Was it harsh yeah, but she did try to steal from us, then tried to attack us. I left her next to the river and walked back. Behind me she started to get up. I turned around to see her angrily yelling at me when a big lizard fish thing came and ate her.
'Tough luck i guess' I walked back with her book. It started to disintegrate and a blue orb fell out of it. 'Wait a minute, if the orb comes from books doesn't that mean' I'm gonna be completely honest I kind of don't want to meet other people. I went back towards the tree and saw Diana had the same idea. She was putting everything into the sack and picked it up.
She put on her sleeves and gauntlets. I threw the 2 orbs into the sack. I also picked up the scorch pear and gator skin and put it inside. Next she put me on her shoulder. 'Wait what?'
She put her arms out in front of her and ran towards the wall. "Wait diana wait!" she busted through the wall. I dived into the bag . I looked up out of the sack and saw her climbing a tree. I was wondering what she was doing when she grabbed on a vine and started tarzan style swinging.
