Chapter 20 - Chapter 17: Glimpse of hope (Survivor’s arc Prelude)

While the kingdom was in disarray after hearing news of Obaka's escape, Subaka and the other Orcs still remained captured.

"While my brother is off to the East and West, we must do our best to prepare ourselves for what's to come. These bastards might have us bound , but won't have us here forever. Let us keep up our physical strength along with our mental, for our mental is very essential". Subaka said, as more Orcs gathered around his cell.

"In due time, they'll force us into hard labor building empires and structures for their name sake built by the backs of our people… for when this time comes do not fear the enemy, study the enemy. In due time … the prey shall become the predator and the predator shall become prey".

"Sharp as always , we don't expect anything less from you" ! One of the Orcs shouted.

As quickly as the crowd grew louder in agreement with Subaka's statement, the crowd suddenly became quiet and the air grew intense as Nakia begans to speak.

"You're absolutely right Subaka, we must learn from the enemy and when the time is right, we will strike against the enemy. But we must not forget, that thr Chief has a plan but he mustn't bear the burden of taking back what's ours alone, so we must put our faith in him until he returns and adapt to our situation".

"So we abandon the way of the Orcs"-

" No"! Nakia yelled, while interrupting one of the warriors.

"We shall never abandon the way of the Orcs, for now we shall fool the enemy by becoming like them. Remember my brothers and sisters, when the time is right we shall strike .

Time has passed since the pursuit of Obaka and Austria's dismay over his escape.While the bounty is still placed on Obaka's head , the rest of the Orcs are released from their cells and into a field that seemed endless .

"Just what in the hell are we in this heat for !? From early bustling days until night , my fellow brothers and sisters are suffering, just what are these bastards getting at"? Subaka thought to himself.

"If you fall behind again, you shall go another night without food and you shall also do another's day of work on top of the work you shall have completed by dusk". One of the mages said yanking on the chains that's holding Subaka down .

He then smiled.

"Soon enough, your kingdom will fall".
