Flying Bear Fort, ever since their last victory, has been exceptionally peaceful. Even the organised orc armies had to make a detour when passing by.
Within a radius of twenty miles, one could hardly spot any orcs. As if a tacit agreement was reached, the orcs didn't venture beyond their boundaries, and the defenders didn't instigate conflicts either.

Apparently, they were all being reasonable, clearly understanding that pride is utterly insignificant compared to the racial strategy.
Earl Hudson did not waste the hard-earned period of tranquillity. He made use of the time to strengthen the training of the military troops in the city.
Having infuriated the Bearman Imperial Court this severely, they are bound to retaliate if given the chance.
