After recovering, Fordring returned alone to the place where he was hurt. Surely enough, he met the Orc once again by the abandoned tower.
The Orc used human language to tell Fordring that his name was Eitrigg.
Later that night, Eitrigg told Fordring his story by a fire. He still remembered when the Horde were noble people who believed in Shamanism.
After the war, Eitrigg realized how far they had fallen under the influence of the Burning Legion and escaped with his family to live a life of seclusion.
This shook Fordring's beliefs – not all Orcs were bloodthirsty or cruel.
The words of the Orc broke through hatred and prejudice, winning the respect of the Paladin. This was especially important for someone who regarded respect as one of the highest honors a person could have.
Before the two parted ways, Fordring vowed to never reveal Eitrigg's whereabouts.
