The general, whose name she found out was Nefcana, was now holding on to Lilly with the rope that was tied to her. So since she had nothing better to do (and she couldn't do it even if she wanted to), Lilly tried to get to know Nefcana. "So do you enjoy seeing me cry and get beaten up?" she asked absentmindedly staring at the sky. "I don't have to answer you little one." He said trying to sound tough to scare her but Lilly could hear a note of sincerity in his voice. "It is a simple yes or no question." He still seemed to be avoiding the question. "Well?" He mumbled something. "I'm sorry I didn't catch that." Lilly said leaning her head in just a bit to hear what he had to say. "No" he mumbled. "See that wasn't so hard, now was it. If you don't like it then why do you let them do it?" "What kind of Uruk-Hai general leader would I be if I stopped my whole troop from beating the things they loathe the most?" "You would be one of a kind. But I see your point. But even a little help would be much appreciated." She said with a hopeful smile. "I will see what I can do." The rest of the trip was spent in silence except for the occasional bickering of orcs that did not agree on who knows what. As the sun began to set Nefcana called all to set up camp. "We will rest here for the night." He shouted over the assembly of orcs and Uruk-Hai. "You will be put by me little one." He said looking at Lilly as thought he wanted to talk about something. Lilly nodded and took a seat by him and waited to see what he wanted to say. When all had quieted down to just a few groups that were still talking Nefcana told Lilly what was on his mind. "Do..do you think that I would ever be accepted by you or others as an equal and not a monster?" This question threw off Lilly a little bit for she was expecting a "so how do you like being with the Uruk-Hai?" or something, but certainly not this. "Um. I can't actually say, for I do not even know you that well to be able to judge." "Well." he stammered to finish his question. "What if you got to know me? Then could you judge?" Lilly could see where this was going. What if this could work out to her advantage? If she befriended this Uruk-Hai then he might help her and she might make a friend in the effort. "I could." "And?" "I will get to know you, then judge you." Lilly said smiling, happy with her decision. "And I think I will have fun doing so." Nefcana also smiled also seeming pleased with her decision. "I will have to keep up my act as general of the Uruk-Hai. So if I don't help you out that much and seem nice at the time, just remember that it is just a cover-up." Lilly nodded. "We will probably rest for the night in a couple of hours. I know how tiring walking in the scorching sun can wear out an elf, especially one that has not been properly fed." He said not taking his eyes off of the horizon. "Nefcana, do you have some water. I will faint if I don't have water soon." She said starting to sway a little. "Of course." He said untying his water supply from his belt. "Here y-." Before he could finish his sentence Lilly collapsed on the ground. Nefcana almost went down to help her and see if she was all right but caught himself just in time. "You" he said pointing to the nearest Uruk-Hai. "Pick her up and carry her until we make camp." Grumbling, the Uruk-Hai plucked up Lilly from the ground and swung her over his shoulders, and started again.
