Hungry Scavenger: A Field Of Death Is Nearby
A raven, black as night, passes Eliriael as the healer ascends a slope together with Lastore and Raolor.
More ravens appear, all assembling at a place further away...
Soon they reach the field of death.
Corpses everywhere, armoured Orks and a bunch of slain spiders.
The gruesome feast is interrupted as the elves examine the fallen, and the ravens continue to watch them from nearby trees, cawing impatiently.
Eliriael covers nose and mouth with a piece of cloth.
Lastore tarries in some distance, watching the mess with some sorrow.
Celeblhair checks the soil for more tracks.
Annunghil and Raolor examine the Orks, turning the corpses.
After a while, the puzzle gets clear.
The Orks, counting several dozen warriors, have been ambushed by the spiders, managed to slay a great number of them but suffered losses themselves.
They continued their way to the east - with Gladiel as hostage.
As soon as the elves continue their hunt, the ravens return, cawing ecstatically, feasting upon the rotten flesh of spider and Ork alike.
