"Sir, about the war, the orcs are still marching to the capital unopposed, there were even some people that began to surrender to the orcs and offered them supplies…"
Esdras listened attentively, it was normal. From the perspective of most people, the orcs were now the winning side, and as such many would try to gain their favor.
This will inevitably cause people to feel the helplessness about the situation and drive more people to extremism. Theft and murder were now common crimes.
Esdras handed the thug a copper coin and looked at someone else.
"There was a rumor that a witch was hung to death and came back to life as a horrid winged monster and killed many in the slums before flying off."
Esdras handed him his coin. He didn't care if it was just a rumor, he needed to have a clear understanding of the big picture. And a copper coin was nothing to him.
