*he throws a fireball into the potion* I need a knee of a spider, a large spider, like the ones in Mirkwood, wait I'll kill him from here *thinks, he gets to a spider, he does it in front of everyone, yet with his mind, a powerball and a few fireball torch the spider, Merlin transports the knee back to where he is and he puts it into the potion.* done *mixes it, puts some into a little bottle and hands it to Rhia. he takes the rest and puts it in another bottle and transports it back to his house* at least the former-orc will awaken and we must make sure the old one doesn't run off! * a magic field around the former-orcs body* now he cant run away! hehehe

*Thankfully takes the potion as the orc starts stirring and muttering again.* Let's see...*Gently opens his mouth and lets some drops fall on his tongue. He calms down immediately. After a few deep breaths, he opens his now perfectly blue eyes.*
Uhh, where am I? Why am I wearing this stinking orc stuff? And I'm so hungry...

*Gives the young man some bread.* Slowly...I know this was a painful process for you. But we need your help. Can you remember what happened to you?
*Sorrow shows in his eyes again.* I can...but it doesn't hurt so much as before. I feel....at peace.....I'm in your debt forever.*
*Smiles* You have to thank Merlin over there....his potion sped up the process of your recovery.
I think I can guess what you want to do...So, as much as I'd like to get out of this clothes, I'm sure I will need them, right?
You're a bright young man, Iridian....Yes, we need you to free the others... Or as many as we can. I've tasted the potion you had with you and I fear there will be a point of no return...
*Nods* I will show you the way to the camp we came from. The faster we go there, the better. I want to spare as many people the tortures I went through when they made me into an orc.
*Looks up to Merlin* We will need a lot more of your potion. It acted really fast...What I have in mind is a sort of avalanche system. You know how a single snow flake can trigger a whole mountain to collapse? If we take as many bottles with this potion as we can carry, we can pass them to rescued 'orcs' who can give it to others. So we can sweep even big camps much faster as if we try to give to potion to everyone by ourselves. And we should take as many extra weapons with us as possible to hand them out. The real orcs sure won't let all that happen without fights.
What do you think?

Let's see if we have enough food to get us all a hot meal. And maybe some rest until Merlin has finished the potion. I think we should try to set out tonight. Each hour means more captured people and less we can rescue. *Walks down the stairs to the horses to take a look at their supplies.*

*Comes up the stairs again with a bag of supplies and goes into the next room which seems to have been the kitchen. Sits down and starts cutting vegetables.*

*back to Merlin* Great! *To Firebird* No thanks, I'm almost done. *Puts the vegetables in a kettle with boiling water.* We can eat in about 15min.

After a hot soup and a few hours of sleep, the group is ready to leave. The bottles and some spare weapons have been distributed to all members of the party. Iridian leads them eastwards through the forests for three hours until they can see the outline of a small mountain rising above the trees. Iridian stops to give the group more details about the camp as they hide in the underwood. He starts drawing a crude map on the forest floor.
Good. Now take a close look. This is the mountain, we are here. the camp is right between us and this hill. If we would approach the camp directly from our position, we would run right into the arms of the Uruk-Hai. Further back towards the mountain, there are the tents of the "new orcs" and in the mountain caves....*He hesitates briefly, fighting his tears and memories* There are, in this caves...there are the new victims. Chained to the walls until the potion slowly turnes them into orcs. You can't imagine how....*swallows* and this is just a small camp. *Looks up* Thats it.
