The Orc city smoldered in a bed of blood and ash. Green-skinned bodies lay strewn across the ground in disparate, desperate pilesโ€”some of children choked or choking, dying in their savage mother's arms as Elven soldiers made their way across the mayhem. One Elf, taller than the rest, with banners hoisted high on either side and long hair flowing down his gold-hued armour, looked upon it with a Kingly gaze. A smile. Measured, regal, one of perfect hatredโ€”no pity in his heart but for each and every Elf here slain by green-skin hands or raped by Orcish war-bands.

"Nothing more reviled than an Orc," said the Elven King.

The orc city smoldered in the wake of battle. The ground was soaked knee deep in the blood and ash of its victims, savage cries of the city's survivors grew fainter until the very air was still. The architect of this destruction looked upon his great work, his chest swelling with great elvish pride at his masterpiece.

"There is nothing more reviled than the Orc!" spat the elvish king. His face was filled with scorn as he looked upon the remains of his victims.

Years of hatred for the inferior race have finally paid off. The vermin were dead.

The Orc Wars were over.

>the wall fell, the dam-brokerage fluted a tithe of blood flowing unbartered upon the city. Green flesh seared as the Elves partook of their king's banquet, the architects, the cooks, the archers and cavalcade of Calvary stormed in and skewered soldiers' plated mail, women's skirts, not the ragged garments of the most wretched orphan went unrent that day; the flames rose, the roses fell, red petals turned to black ash, red blood turned to black bile in the streets as the sewers spilled out, in victory cried the elven king, and he cried for triumph and rode in between a host of standard bearers, the flags so high they were lost among the pikes and ruined towers and burned shells of shacks and hobbling hovels, all arousing a black cloud of sacrificial incense to the old gods. There is no creature more savage, more detestable, he cried to the makeshift court, as the Orc.
