Chapter 2: The Land of Savages
Northern Eostia has always been a harsh land.
Everyone knew that from the environmental challenges of swaps, desert, and a massive dark forest, to the constant threat of monster hordes ransacking your town and making off with your woman. The North has always been a rough land where only the strong survive.
And for the very few, but entrenched and fortified human settlements they were plenty strong when dealing with the usual monster threats.
The relatively decent sized city of Red Stone was by all means one of these towns.
A towering stone wall that protects them from the constant threat of a surprise attack, the fact that everyone that lives here is required to know how to fight and serve in the city guard for at least two years, and their town leader was once a knight that served under the Golden Crusaders of Ken.
They all their bases covered protection, formidable warriors, and good leadership.
This has allowed them to survive so far in this cruel and horrible world.
But every town or city needs trade and trade routes to survive. So Red Stone has to send out citizens outside of its walls to find or buy supplies and bring back what ever they can for the sake of and survival of the city.
Today just happens to be one of those days.
Walking along a dirt road next to the Dark Forest was a small convoy guarding a wagon that was traveling south for supplies and to pick up a few members of the city's guard that had been down south training with Gold Crusaders of Ken.
Among the guards for the convoy was a woman by the name of Anna, and for the first time in her life she was leaving the city's walls and seeing the rest of the world. But she also knew for the first time she was truly in a threat of real danger out here, she just hoped that she was prepared for whatever was thrown at her.
Anna was a young dark skinned beauty of a woman with chocolate brown skin, warm dark honey colored eyes, and midnight black hair that ran down to her waist when let down, but she kept held in a neat and large bun.
Her attire consists of pitch black thigh high boots, black and white lined trousers that became tucked into her boots, and two brown leather belts that held her short sword and twin daggers. Her top was an almost skin right white blouse that collared outward with a few buttons left undone giving her more than generous E-cup a little extra room to breath. She also had leather shoulder pads on her shoulders that gave her a bit of extra protection, provided straps to hold her small target shield on her back, and held one extra knife she had hidden underneath near one of the straps towards her back.
She was towards the front of the supply convoy happy enjoying the sun on her skin, but still keeping her eyes peeled for any sign of a monster lurking in the tree line.
"Hey Anna don't stray too far ahead, wouldn't want a werewolf to snag you." She hears an older woman call out as she turns to see one of her combat tutors walking next to the wagon.
This woman was Sophia and like Anna had both chocolate colored skin and black hair but that was where the similarities ended, as she was almost a good six inches taller than the younger woman and rather than letting her hair grow long she cut her hair extremely short on the sides and let her hair gain length on top and fold down the right side to about the ear. Her eyes too were different with them being coal black and gleaming with a bit more caution in them as she too scanned the tree line.
Her attire was a sleeveless black shirt cut open to allow her own chest to breath, and though she wasn't quite as gifted as Anna she still was rather proud of her own D-cups. She wore long grey pants with a sailor styled cutlass on her hip, along with a small quiver of bolts laying horizontal at the hip. She also wore iron leg and arms guards with a small dagger placed in the strap of her right arm, and she proudly carried a small crossbow which was resting in her arms like a child.
The younger woman slowed her pace and fell back with the others as they carried on, and eventually they all found themselves walking next to a small cliff that lead down to a lake at the bottom.
"So from here all the way to Ken? I've got to say even Feoh is quite the journey from here, why are there so many newbies here?" Anna says seeing a few men and woman who barely qualified to be called as such.
Sophia shook her, "The elders and that ragged old fuck are probably using this as a way to teach everyone here a thing or two about the real world. Plus if we're to relive the current ones at Ken for training with the Gold Crusaders then it's best we send them young with no bad habits."
Anna nodded to that somewhat understanding why, as everyone there that could fight had to know what they were up against. After all sparing partners can only do so much, and can't really simulate how an orc, ogre, imp, or gods forbid something bigger like a troll or minotaur.
So while it might be a somewhat sink or swim concept it was very good for anyone to actually go out and experience.
The two of them eventually grow to simply become comfortable in each other's company and they walk almost into the night with them still walking between the forest and lakeside. "So Anna, you got someone back in Red Stone?" Sophia asks out of the blue.
The younger woman looks to her tutor with a bit of friendly mirth, "Gods I wish, best I've ever had was a guy or two at the bar. Too bad I was really too drunk to remember most of it though."
Sophia smirks to her, "Well damn didn't know you were into threesomes, picking up two men at once. You must be quite the beast in bed! Bet the boys love those tits being smashed on them when you ride!" She says a little too loudly with a laugh getting some of the guys in the group to look over in shock or interest at the now blushing Anna.
"Fuck you." Was all she said back.
"Well I'm guessing you're wondering about me then since I asked you?" Sophia asks with Cheshire grin.
"No not really." Anna says quickly before trying to walk away, only to be pulled back by the taller and stronger woman.
"Now let me tell you this, you're standing next to the queen of The Pin, and I'm proud of that title. That's what I call it when I see some good looking sap in the bar or on the street. It's real simple process…" She says sounding like she was really getting heated up just thinking about it.
Anna for her part slapped her hand to her forehead, "Do I have to hear about this? Can we just walk in some peace and quiet?"
Sophia just smacked her in the back of the head, "Oh shut up for all you know I might be giving you the information you need to land a husband, or at least a good lover. But anyway I find a one in the bar or street and then I find a way to get them alone, cornering them is best but alone is key then I walk up and….."
"Orcs! From the tree line! Battle positions!" Another woman from the other side of the wagons shouts before the sound of swords being drawn, arrows being notched, and sheilds being banged on was heard from all around the wagon.
The two quickly rush over to the other side Sophia already aiming her crossbow and letting a bolt fly into the throat of an orc and watching as blood quickly began to drain from the monster's neck.
While her tutor was loading another bolt Anna had drawn her short sword and target shield and clashed with an orc who had a plywood shield and crude looking club.
The woman went low and sliced clean through his stomach earning a loud roar of agony as the beast tried to push his intestines back into place. Only to have the sword go through his back and pierce through his spleen and lung.
Anna kicked the dying orc from her sword and went to help another fighter who seems to be having trouble with a small group of three.
When she got there she leapt into the air and slammed her blade into one's ear making its eyes roll dead into its head and when she ripped it out a mixture of red and clear fluid began leaking all over the ground as it fell dead.
She then moved onto the second deflecting a swing from the monster's axe and slashing at its leg. However this one moved at the last second, but she was able to recover before her mistake was countered.
She then circled the orc and watched its footing and where the axe was. She was lucky that this one only had a weapon, bad news was that it was a two handed one meaning greater length. But every woman that fought monsters in Eostia knew, you were lucky if they killed you.
So with an almost reckless spirit she rushed the orc and used this surprise to bait out a swing from the beast. And after predicting one she closed the gap and left a good slash down the monster's back.
She heard fighting in the distance grow somewhat quiet and she knew that they may have been overwhelmed, which pushed her to to try and be quick about this.
She rushed again but mistimed the next swing and caught a bit of the handle to her side knocking her down, but she quickly recovered.
She rolled her shoulders and waited for the orc to come to her this time, and after a few brief seconds of her ragged breath driving the orc mad it rushed with its axe in one hand with the other reaching out to either grab or punch her.
So meeting the orc in the center with her own charge she smacked aside its hand and heard the distinct sound of a finger breaking from the impact. She followed up by burying her sword into its side but she was forced to retreat with her blade as its free hand came back around. And while the orc still had its guts inside still, it had a nasty stab wound that was steadily bleeding.
It looked at her again, this time angry and almost seeing red with rage. And it roared at her, bits of pieces of spit and blood flying through the air covering the dirt road in a horrible smelling liquid mix.
She saw this as her perfect opportunity and rushed again to the same side with a plan to finish spilling this thing's insides for the outside to see.
However this time the orc moved and immediately she got a face full of hand as the second one of the group had rejoined the fight.
Flying back a bit and shaking her head of some spots she looks to see the other fighter, a man who didn't look a day over twenty half ripped apart at the waist with one of his legs missing and the right side of his chest caved in with the ribs protruding.
Anna seeing that the fight just got a lot tougher, gripped one of the daggers on her belt and lobbed it into the first one's foot earning a yell of pain.
She then rushed forward and rolled past the second one who also rushed and then she sprinted forward again once her roll ended, placing her behind the first who couldn't fully turn due to the dagger in his foot.
She took advantage of this quick as she cut out the back of his leg making him drop onto his pinned leg.
But before she could go for the kill the second one came to save its brother and swung its club downward, not at her but near her with shockwave sending her onto her back as the orc came closer and began looking over her with a drooling grin as it scanned up and down her body .
She tried to swing at him when she saw a twitch under his loin cloth, but the orc moved and caught her arm. And by this time to make matters worse the second one had ripped its foot free and had joined the other and was now almost pressing up against her not caring for its two bloody legs dragging behind it, its stab wound, or the broken finger.
It knew it would heal, and it knew what it would do to her in the meantime while it healed.
Anna wanted to scream out, but held her tongue as they leaned down at her and the one at her side lapped the entirety of her face with its disgusting tongue.
But as if the gods were listening a bolt flew through the air with a seemingly harmonious whistle as it buried into the open drooling mouth of the one on top of her. It had no time to think as it's spine at the neck was shattered and it fell to the side, letting go of her sword arm.
So without any sort of hesitation, Anna with a mighty war cry buried her blade into the other's eye and took a great deal of pleasure twisting the blade inside turning the orc's already small brain into a dismantled paste.
She stood up and then ripped her sword out of its eye tried to shake off as much blood and brain as she could but her sword was now caked in orc blood.
She looked to see Sophia running over to her with her crossbow and a fair bit of blood on her, "Anna are you alright?!" She asked scared that her favorite junior had been hurt.
Anna waved her off, "I'm fine Sophia, how are the others?" She asked hoping that the others were fairing better than that first guy she saw.
Sophia shook her head, "Not good, I've been trying to help as best I can but we've already lost over half the party. Damn orcs either took the women back into the woods or killed the men. Some got away, cowards, but they'll live hopefully. We need to leave as well, les the orcs return with more." She said with anger in her voice as they could hear the screams of dying men or the arguably worse sound of women screaming in a heartbreaking mix pleading and crying from the tree line.
Anna ripped her dagger from the foot of the dead orc and glared at her tutor, "We can't just leave them! That is a fate worse than death! I will not run away I will die on my feet like I was taught to!"
Sophia turned to retort but widens her eyes and quickly tackles Anna to the ground as what looked like a net was thrown from the tree line.
And since they were pretty far that took a crazy amount of strength to do.
They stared at the forest as they looked on horror as trees were knocked down by the monster that came out.
It was big, much bigger than orcs or even ogres for that matter. While orcs always stood anywhere from six to seven feet and ogres stood at about seven to seven and a half with more muscle when compared to their slightly smaller cousins. The thing that walked toward them was just over ten feet tall and had the same muscle tone of an ogre but was much stronger. It had instead of green skin like the others it had a light dirt colored skin with a large very pronounced nose and instead of fangs it had more human like teeth. Although they were much more boxed in shape with a stupid look on its face as it scratched its giant ass.
It also stood completely naked when compared to most monsters, most likely since it didn't understand the concept of clothes, or was too stupid to realize.
They had to fight a troll, a fucking troll of all monsters. 'Damn it all, this thing can heal. We'll have to kill it quick, goddess protect us.'
It locked its beady eyes onto the two women and let loose a stupid sounding low giggle, "Oh human wooooman. I like human woman they make me cock feel good." It said as the two in disgust and horror watched its probably twenty inch long member twitch and slowly rise as it stalked closer to then pulling the net over its shoulder again.
The two survivors nodded and rushed towards it with Anna ditching her shield and grabbing one of her daggers and Sophia had long since notched another bolt.
It threw the net and they split apart to go for either of its legs.
Anna got to the left leg first and went for the tendon on the back of its ankle, but was forced to dodge a swipe from one of its hands. However this left it open for a stab wound to the arm, which Anna delivered with great prejudice.
The troll yelled in pain as it got a nasty stab to the back of its arm. But it quickly ignored it as he knew it would heal. He saw the other woman going for his other leg so he swung his net arm around to try and sweep her up with it.
And unfortunately for her he was too fast with it to properly dodge. Leaving Sophia thankfully not caught in it, but still off her feet.
She then watched in horror as the troll reached for her with his free hand. So doing the only thing she could do she fired her crossbow into his finger, specifically under the nail.
The troll definitely felt that one as it screamed in a high pitches voice clutching its finger in agony as the small steel bolt had been driven deep into its flesh. Anna rushing over to help Sophia onto feet helped her avoid stepping on the net as they made their way around the monster as it was now thrashing about in a pain induced tantrum.
"Thank you." She says simply to her junior.
Anna nods to her, "We have to bring this thing down in one move, the head it has to be. My blade can't reach its heart."
The taller woman nods and loads another bolt. They watch as the troll rips the bolt from its finger using its teeth, not at all caring for the skin, flesh, and finger nail that it had just casually ripped off.
"Ouch that fucking hurt! Now you're gonna get it, me gonna fuck you till you bleed from every hole! You gonna take me cock from sun up to sun down! And you gonna be favorite personal fuck toys!" It shouts as it runs at them still in a frenzy.
They wait for it to get to them and when they saw it going to throw the net again they go underneath it and both attack the ankles, Anna trying to slash through its tough hide around it and Sophia firing the bolt into the tendon stumbling the monster, but not downing it.
It roars and turns on them trying step on one to hold them in place, but they move too fast and it swings again with its right arm holding the net. They dodge again but Anna nearly stumbles trying avoid it.
They go in again but the troll is ready and kicks forward nailing Sophia in the legs sending down to the ground and knocking the wind out of her. Anna goes in for the attack but the troll bring its free hand around to catch her, but he only catches a dagger to the palm.
Yelling pain again he rips out the dagger and throws it in anger into the lake. The troll runs again this time but stomps the ground she is near knocking her footing off. She tries to doge but a moment of lapse allows the troll to grab her legs and hoist her in the air.
She waits for a moment and throws her sword at the trolls face, and is disappointed at the fact that she only gets his cheek.
The troll howls in pain and anger but doesn't drop her and instead throws the woman at her tutor who was just starting to stand up and gain her bearing back. Only for Anna to knock her out completely with the impact.
Anna stands up slowly but to her horror is only able to see intertwined ropes as the troll's net finds the two of them.
"Oh good me caught you!" The moronic monster shouts as he dangled the two of them just out of their reach in front of him. "Tonight's gonna be a good night, me orcs caught the rest of you women. Now we get to have fun while we eat tonight, hope you like cock for dinner." It says with a laugh as it hangs the two behind it as they are dragged into the woods.
Anna goes for her last dagger, but one look at the unconscious Sophia and she knew that getting out of the net would only be the first problem.
So she kept it where she had it, and the hidden one in her shoulder guard, she knew they would need much more later than now. Now all they could do is wait.
At the Monster Camp: Nighttime
It had been a few hours since the women of the supply guard had been captured by orcs or the troll, and for the most part they, surprisingly, have not been used by the monsters yet. It was almost like they were waiting for something.
But everyone there most definitely didn't want to see what that was, so from the moment that they got the camp everyone there in all the different cages began to hatch different plans to escape.
Anna and the now conscious Sophia both sat in a cage with two other woman, all of them keeping there eyes peeled for the occasional roaming guard that would patrol between the cages.
And while both women had lost their primary weapons being their swords, daggers, and the crossbow each of them still had that last hidden knife as a last resort. To which they were trying to pick the lock on the cage.
Anna was the one trying the lock with her knife and a hair pin that one of the other women had in her hair when they were captured. She had been at this for about an hour now, but with the lock being on the other side, having to stop every time a guard came by, and her lack of lock picking skill the chances of escape were not looking good for them.
"Anna get down the guard's coming!" Sophia harshly whispered to her as Anna ripped both items out of lock and sat back in her cage.
The orc came around and leaned in getting a look at the four women in the cage together and had this unsettling grin on his face, "You all gonna look so good with our cocks inside you. I can't wait for midnight."
Anna bites her lip and decided that now would be the best time to….pry for information.
She leans slightly forward and slightly opens her blouse as she looks up at orc from in her knees. "And what happens at midnight?" She asks with naïve sounding voice.
The orc at the site of her was literally drooling and its eyes were bugged as it stared her up and down before a movement in its ripped brown pants told her she was going to get the info.
"Oh midnight is when the good stuff happens, me the other orcs and boss troll get to pick a girl and we get to fuck em under the red moon. When enough of yous take our seed we get new monsters. But red moon makes them strong, stronger than us, maybe stronger than troll boss." He said before with a great amount of effort looking and walking away.
The other women looked at her and knew that this was it. So Sophia grabbed her own knife and held it behind her forearm. She then looks to Anna with a grim expression.
"Anna do you know why every woman in Red Stone is given a knife before they leave the city?" She asks with an unreadable expression.
The younger woman shakes her head always just assuming it was for a last resort.
Sophia then motions across her throat, "It's so no monsters are born from us. I'd rather die then be knocked up by some horrific beast. I'd suggest you do the same. Don't let them get to you, it's a fate worse than death." She says with a deathly calm and quiet voice.
Anna looked to her dagger in horror, but she understood.
Deny the enemy a chance to recover their numbers, make the fight easier in the long run, save some lives later down the line. Makes sense she supposed, in morbid sort of way.
So rather than sitting there trying to pick the lock Anna just sat there wondering, how would life be back home? Would everyone know they got hit on the road? Would those training in Ken realize something was wrong? Would anyone really come?
She just kept asking those kind of questions, over and over.
Until finally midnight was almost there.
The monsters took every woman from all the cages they had in the camp and brought them all to a ceremonial area with a large stone throne where the troll was currently sitting. Around them were every single monster that was living at the camp, and it was a large one. Orcs of all sizes shapes and different degrees of hideous, imps while much smaller and most of the time pink rather than green, and of course the camp's leader the troll who stared out all of his prisoners.
"Lookie here all these human women, ready to take our seeds. Now then we know how d'this works pick a woman and fuck till you can't fuck no more. Make her belly swell, then the red moon make next monster's stronger than ever. So then since I'm da boss, I'll pick first." The troll then looks out amongst the crowd of horrified and at this point half naked women. And his eyes widen when he sees two very familiar women, the ones who made him hurt and bleed.
"Bring me those two!" He shouts pointing at Anna and Sophia.
The two look to each other and hesitated, but surprisingly it was a monster who spoke up.
"Hey boss I thought you said we'z could only have one! Why you getting two!?" The orc shouts in anger.
The troll though just stood up and stomped over to him, "Because I'm the boss, and I caught the two of them. And they hurt me bad, I say one chokes on me cock and the other choke on her!"
The troll then grabs both of them by the torsos and throws them next to his throne. "Anyone gots a problem with that!?"
No one spoke up.
"Good, now boys pick you a girl." He says as he goes back to his throne.
Only to be interrupted again, "Hey boss there ain't enough girls for all of us!" One orc shouts out.
The troll groans and turns with anger in his eyes, "Then two of yous fuck one girl! It ain't hard to think!"
Another though shouts at the leader, "Then why you not share one of them! You have two to share your meat. But got to share a woman, you say that all monster equal that why we do this under red moon so monster grow stronger. But you want more!"
At this point Sophia and Anna were looking at what they thought was about to be a mutiny. A stroke of luck apparently.
But then they saw something peculiar, and terrifying. More orcs came out from the wood line with more three more prisoners. Only these ones had bags over their heads.
Everything seemed to stall as the new orcs and their prisoners made their way over to the troll.
"Boss we got a few more, but they…..different." The orc says uneasy.
The troll now throughly possess off storms over to them, "Why? Why is it so hard to just sit back and fuck a girl? Ok what make them different?"
The orc then removed the sacs from their heads and they were, definitely different alright.
Although it was easy to see that they were female judging from their chests, legs, and hips. But that was about the most feminine thing about them.
They had more muscle than almost any female they had ever seen, and not tone they had more bulk, but a sort of working feminine bulk. Their skin was pale to sandy in color with cat like or reptilian slits for eyes with the surrounding eye being either yellow or orange in color. And they also had these small spikes that seemed to be sprouting out of their shoulders and arms.
But what stood out the most were their mouths, instead of being a normal human's mouth full of teeth or a monster's with occasional fang or two, their mouths were chalked full of teeth the size of knife blades. Each and every single one looked like a crude wooden arrow head.
The troll though was quite surprised, "What the fuck is this? These ain't no human woman, they's monsters!"
The orc though just smirked, "No they ain't boss, they scared of us didn't even have a weapon on em. Besides they got tits and they got a cunt, what's it matter? Just make sure they mouths ain't near your junk, and you good."
And the troll trying to test what was just said leaned down and got into one's face, and sure enough the strange female creature shirked away from him and let out a small whimper.
The troll leaned back and let out a massive laugh, "Ah you'z right, they ain't monsters just ugly humans! Give em here! I'm gonna take one for meself."
He goes back to his throne and lifts Sophia by her head, "This one's all yours boys!" It shouts throwing a cursing Sophia to its band of monsters.
Anna saw the strange creature dropped next to her and while the creature wasn't human it was clearly afraid. Almost as if she didn't know what was going on at all, and that surprised her at just how scared she looked.
The creature looked to her and quietly spoke. "Nay rak to mah lae karak taca no suku?"
Anna had no idea the what was just said, but she could tell just from the tone in her voice. She was terrified and had no idea why this was happening.
So Anna made a choice, she looked at her hidden knife and swore to help them. She just hoped Sophia didn't really use it on herself.
And orcs and troll came back and as the sky began to turn red they all cheered into the sky. Soon the sound of clothes being torn and woman trying to fight back was all that could be heard and Anna knew this was it.
The troll reached for the creature and at first she tried to crawl away from him, but she was already leaning again the throne. "You don't look so pretty in the face, but that's ok I'z don't need that hole."
It laughed that stupid, horrible, annoying laugh and then all Anna saw was red as she leapt on the troll and plunged her knife into his neck.
The troll screamed in surprise actually making all the other monsters stop whatever it was they were doing and all look over to their leader.
Anna tried to stab him again and again, but the knife was just too small, and she really couldn't hold on so she fell off.
The troll having grabbed the knife and pulled it out rubbed the few wounds it had in its meaty thick neck, all would heal but it was now worried about another woman having one.
Sophia knew they were screwed, she admitted it was noble of Anna to try and protect the new creatures that had been brought to this horrible fate, but now they were all doomed.
The creature looked to Anna with what looked like admiration in its eyes and when their eyes met Anna saw her nod to her out of respect.
All the orcs "searched" their victims and only a few found knives, but it was still more than enough to make them angry about having a blade so close to their favorite organ.
So with a renewed vigor they began to slightly more cautiously try again with the women. At least until they were again interrupted by noise from the tree line.
"What is it now?!" The troll shouts in rage.
Off in the distance they hear the sound of the forest being toppled over. Then came a sound that everyone recognized, a war horn. That deep echoing noise seemed to fill the whole camp with goosebumps.
And from the trees came a lone figure with a banner in his hands.
In the light of the moon and fire of the camp it looked by all standards to be large and very muscular man wearing a loose set of baggy brown trousers and a sleeveless shirt low cut to show off his impressive torso of hardened muscle. But like the females that had been brought before he was different. While his skin was the same shade as a few humans, the spikes he had lining his shoulders and arms said otherwise. And then there was the face, orange cat like eyes and mouth full of teeth that were much larger than the females. He even had a certain commanding attitude about him and screamed respect and intimidation.
He then stabbed the banner into the ground and ran towards the camp.
Then the horn was heard again, and this time it revealed he was not alone. Row upon row of identical creatures came forward, some with weapons and armor some without.
All of them running after their leader.
And things became very interesting once he had site of the orcs, imps, and the troll.
He whipped his arms and from the forearm came two blades made of what looked like bone. Each of them looked sharper than a sword and he had a savage look that screamed he was more than happy to use them.
Then with no warning or hesitation the man went to killing each and every thing that stood in his way.
The first orc was still confused as it held the woman it had under its foot with half her shirt in its off hand. And so it was totally unprepared as those bone blades gutted him from side to side.
The orc roars in pain only to then loose a leg and have the man standing above him, "Na ral tar tarka!" The new figure roared before he plunged his blades into each side of its chest and then casually lifted up and split the orc in two at the sides.
Now caked in blood the leader was joined by others, all of whom had either spears or arm blades, and all of them quickly going to war with the monsters of the camp. Or really it was a slaughter, they began to slaughter everything that breathed at them wrong.
She watched as an imp was speared through the stomach and in its dying moments the large battle scared and one eyed creature took a chunk out of its throat, with his teeth.
A few loud and sickening crunches were heard as he roared to the air. "Morr brusha kaka brusha!"
The others hearing this gained a savage grin as they began to literally take bits out of orc and imp alike. All of them cheering the same thing.
They then focus on the leader, the one who had been here first as he butchered his way through.
Two came against him and he sparked his blades together sending sparks of fire at them burning to the touch, stunning them and leaving them open. He then leapt into one and impaled the beast through the neck and guts making the orc let out a whimper or gurgle as it bled out. So to end it he removed the one from his neck and cleanly sliced the rest of its head off.
Moving to the second he tossed the headless corpse aside and rolled under it and sliced out the sides. The orc turned despite the new wounds only to be greeted with two swinging blades that took off both legs in almost surgical fashion.
The orc fell to its stumps and desperately tried to crawl away, but the leader laughed a deep sinister laugh as he stalked overhead and grabbed the orc by the throat. He then quickly impaled him through the groin and sliced from crotch to skull splitting the beast in two with all of its gory innards on display for all to see.
The leader roars as he leapt to another and impaled the orc through both shoulders, leaving its arms totally useless. The orc though didn't have long to scream as he was grabbed by the sides of his head and while the leader stood on his back began to separate the head from body with only pure muscle strength.
Tossing the head in his arms for a bit the leader laughs and tosses it to another as his underling bites off the cheek and eagerly then begins to eat the orc he had just bisected.
He then sees a small group of imps crawling along the forest floor and he sparked his blades in challenge.
The first one jumped at him with a knife, but the leader simply cut the imp in two at the chest and then quickly spun to gain momentum and cut down another two and impale the final one onto his blade. He then watched as the thing weakly began to claw at the bone blade and rapidly bleed and die in front of him.
So as a final farewell he flicked the imp off his blade and stomped its head into paste.
He spots another two orcs coming at him with actual weapons this time and laughs a truly savage laugh as he rushes to meet them.
He jumps over one and begins to pummel the first with punch after punch leaving it dazed and confused after only three solid hits. So with one partially take care of he turned and stabbed a blade through the second and growled at him before impaling him through the groin and splitting him in two from the waist.
With his attention now back on the first he grabbed the orc by the throat and punched him one last time before a blade emerged though his back spilling stomach content and blood all over the ground behind him. He was then kicked off and finished off with a quick impaling through the eye.
Soon the slaughter came to a head with each and every new comer soaked in blood and with bits and pieces of orc and imp being picked from their teeth.
They also seemed to find their female counterparts, and had a surprising amount of compassion for them as the males quickly ripped off their own clothes and armor to cover those who theirs ripped by the orcs.
All that was left was the troll, who still had Anna and the final female of theirs. The troll now having a large mace in its hands flared at them all.
"Who the fuck are you'z all?!" We was supposed to be having a good time fucking these woman to make more monsters. But you come and kill me'z orcs and imps. Now you all die." It shouted with total confidence as it took a few steps forward to charge a literal small army.
But with one motion the leader stopped everything with a simple raise of his hand. The others stopped in their tracks and looked at him waiting for a command.
But instead he stood locked eyes with the troll and crossed his arms and blades across his chest, "Nay aka ratakka tahar Kombat!"
Whatever it just said was enough to get all the other to retrace their blades and form a circle around the troll and him but still giving them a plentiful amount of space.
The troll looks around him seeing all the bloody and gore covered faces, weapons, and arms of the strange people around him, and all of the dead eyes and furious faces of the women who had been ignored by this point and had joined in and began to watch.
The troll though simply looks to the leader as he retracted his blades and stared back as if waiting for a response.
"You don't speak like me, how me supposed to know what you said. Hell all I heard was combat." He says with a tone while gripping his mace.
Then as if a switch had been flipped the leaders blades returned full force, "Then you understood enough."
He then sprinted at the troll with rage filled roar and immediately got behind the larger monster and slashed at his legs, but purposely avoiding vital points.
The troll swung around but he was waiting for that as he slammed his blade into the center knuckle and ripped open the troll's forearm letting blood, skin, flesh, and bits of bone fall from the wound.
He then kneed the troll in the groin and snapped kicked him in the same place getting the troll to drop and gag from the feeling his balls being kicked so brutally.
The leader then grabbed him by the throat with clawed hands and broke his nose with a monstrous hook, "You stole Tarkatan women, you dared to lay you filthy hands on them! I will personally butcher you and feed them your corpse! You dared to face the Tarkata tribe and you will pay with your life!"
He dodged the large swing by going low and stabbed the troll in his lung with one blade and through his arm with another. Pinning the larger monster to the ground the leader began to kick the injured side of his victim's chest breaking ribs and pushing bones closer and closer to his other lung, slowly choking him from the inside out.
With a final slash to his arm cutting all the way to the bone the leader leapt off his bloody opponent.
The troll throwing its whole body at the leader watched in horror as he dodged again and this time felt a foot go missing as the leader used his blades much like a scissor to lob it off completely and toss it off to the side where others began to immediately get into a fist fight over who would get to keep it.
Now on one leg and one arm the troll used its mace as a crutch and was visibly terrified of the true monster in front of him.
But the fear was more than warranted as the leader charged again with both blades poised to chop something off again, and it was right as the troll found the other leg now missing its knee cap.
Finally falling and not being able to rise the troll looked up only to be blinded by a spark to the eyes. The screams of pain were music to everyone's ears.
The leader then went to work carving up a still living being with him slashing indiscriminately on the monster's chest almost like chopping up meat for a butcher.
Then finally after what seemed like an eternity the troll's high pitched screams of pain stopped and the leader walked up to its face where its eyes were slowly recovering.
"Let your death be a warning to all who would trifle with the Tarkata clan. May your corpse strike fear into all, as they see what our blades can do."
He then gripped the troll's face with his clawed fingers and with a sudden and horrifying motion ripped the troll's face clean off exposing the raw flesh, bone and eyes underneath. Then it happened again only he gripped the top of the skull and pried it off exposing the large pink and grey flesh that was the troll's brain.
And with a final brutal stab the leader thrust his blade through the troll's brain and plucked the thing from its skull, and with a roaring crowd of warriors cheering him on the leader took a huge meaty bite of the brain spraying blood and tissue all over the corpse of former boss.
Anna watched in total fear with a deep rooted respect for their fighting skill, but also the brutal ways they fought and killed.
They killed caked in blood, and they loved it.
They ate like the kill was their favorite meal.
They fought like devils that escaped straight from hell.
And now those devils were looking at all the human women that had been staring on that whole time.
Anna saw the leader walk towards her an unreadable expression on his tooth filled face and she swallowed a fear she didn't know she had till now.
But before anything could happen the female she had tried to help with her knife stood in front of her. "Baraka, takkses raak et nol."
She says in a pleading voice making the chief who she know knew as Baraka stop and stare before his blades retracted and he looked at Anna then to all the other woman who were still staring now fearfully at the other warriors.
He grunted and then turned to them, "Olokk dak borak."
And like a switch had been pulled they all began to simply grunt or growl and take their own back to the woods.
But they took more than a few orcs with them or at least prices of them on spears and arm blades.
He then looked to Anna and nodded, "She says you saved her from that last one. To fight for a member of Tarkata, you're not bad for a human. Take what you want from the camp, we've already taken our fill of meat and saved our people. You may take the others and go, you will not be harmed."
He then simply began to walk away taking the occasional bite of the brain he still had in his hands.
"Wait!" She called out.
"What human?!" He responded irritated.
Anna didn't know why but she did it out of instinct and crossed her arm over her chest and heart and bowed her head at Baraka and to her surprise he merely nodded back. And left them be, picked up his war banner and continued walking away disappearing into the darkness of the nighttime forest.
Anna then simply fell to her knees, as the entirety of the day caught up to her. Sophia finally made herself known as she walked up and dropped next to her. "What fuck did we just witness?"
"Truly savage warriors." She responds with her own shock easily becoming heard in her voice.
They both knew that all of Eostia was forever to change with these new people, those between monster and man.
