Avalon - A sanctuary for the Heroic Spirit

Hidden in the depths of the World's Ridge, the World's Ridge is the northernmost giant mountain range located in the entire continent of Faeron. The www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion starts from the Sea of Ice Floes and extends eastward to the Great Ice Sea, spanning the entire northern part of Faerun. No one knows how big the spine of the whole world is, and no one has been able to climb this mountain range since ancient times. Many people are speculating about what is behind the spine of the world, some say that you can reach the kingdom of the gods by climbing the spine of the world, and others say that there is nothing but the endless void, because it is the border of the world.

Little is known about the Spine of the World, except that the air is thin and cold, and there is little life there.

Under the guidance of the Heroic Spirits, the Prophet Thrall found Avalon in this forbidden area of life, where the seasons are distinct, and there are grasslands, rivers, lakes, and forests. It's hard to imagine that this is in the depths of the spine of the world.

The Avalon orcs have lived and bred here for thousands of years, and although there are many fierce beasts here, there is no other intelligent life other than the orcs. In Solam's opinion, Avalon should be a huge basin deep in the spine of the world, but what it is, I don't know, everything is guessed based on the knowledge of Solam's previous life.

When the orcs first arrived, they were miserable, and all the clans were left with a group of old, weak, sick and crippled. The three clans of War Song, Blackstone, and Frostwolf were all killed by men, leaving only women and babies in swaddling clothes. So although these 3 clans have always enjoyed a high status in Avalon, they are not really large tribes.

As far as the Warsong clan where Sauram is located has been cultivated for thousands of years, the population is now just over 2,000, of course, this is also determined by the low birth rate of the Avalon orcs, you must know that the orcs outside are famous for their ability to live. Perhaps it is true that the orcs of Avalon are taller and stronger than the orcs of the outside world, without the chaos and bloodlust of those cousins. But in terms of fertility, I really don't have much power, for example, his second Bertrick, who is standing in front of Solam, has been married for almost 10 years and still has no children.

In fact, this is actually the norm in Avalon, and there are only a few who can give birth to 3 children to the old chieftain, or how to say that the old cow can not only fight but also give birth.

The second Bertrick is the hunter leader of the clan. This leader is not his father's seal, and besides, in the orc society, he doesn't pay attention to this, if you don't have the ability, don't say that your father is the patriarch, even if your father is a prophet, no one will bird you. So Trick's ability is recognized by everyone, he is the first hunter of the clan, and he is much stronger than Solam's uncle in terms of hunting skills, of course, fighting is another matter, Solam's big berth Krumsh is the strongest warrior except for the old man.

Trick is actually not tall among the orcs, but his eyes are as sharp as a falcon, and his muscles are not as savage as those of other warriors, but the tense muscles make people think of a panther hunting in the forest, and it feels like they are about to explode at any time. Coupled with the 3 scars on his face, no matter how you look at it, I don't think it's easy to mess with.

Solam and Krum stood in front of Trick, both a little nervous, no problem, this second uncle has never had any expression, and his personality is serious and serious. Not only Soram, but also the other adults of the clan were very restrained in front of Trick, for fear of being scolded.

Trick looked at the two little ones, his eyes were still sharp, but he was still a little depressed in his heart, Krum just forget it, just say hello, anyway, his old man and wife don't care, but he can practice hard. But Solam .....

Yesterday Mama Garrom heard that Solam was going to hunt, and in the evening she went to her father's place to make a big fuss, and if she had not been persuaded by the people, the kind-looking old lady would have pulled out her heavy flail and the old man to come to the full force. Don't look at the old lady is older than the old man, but even the old man is a little stunned by that fierce energy. It wasn't until finally that Solam repeatedly promised that he would be careful, and that he would immediately run away when he was in danger, that the old lady stopped.

The old lady asked Trick to reassure her that he would keep Solam safe before leaving, but the look in his eyes when he left made Trick's scalp a little tense now. He dared to assure the Avalon Heroic Spirit that if Soram was really injured, the old lady would definitely smash those dozens of pounds of heavy flail on him. And the scene where his mother-in-law and sister-in-law told him with red eyes also made him extremely nervous, if something really happened, he would definitely never be at peace.

"Huh" Trick threw away distracting thoughts, it's like this anyway, otherwise what else can I do, teach. Besides, like his father, he didn't think that his little nephew was really as weak as he looked.

"Now that you follow me to learn to hunt, I only have two requirements, one is to keep in mind what I have explained, and the other is to be very careful, no matter what, you can't let your guard down." As he spoke, he pointed to the three scars on his face. "This is the lesson of letting my guard down, and I'm still good, at least I didn't lose my life." "I was young at the time, and I went hunting in the big forest with a few hunters from my clan, and we came across an alpine snow leopard, and we chased it all day before we shot it to the ground. I was careless at the time, thinking that this was a snow leopard that was injured and chased by us for a day, and I didn't have the strength to resist, so I didn't care too much, but the guy actually pretended to be dead, and I left a little bit of progress, and as a result, my life was almost confessed. ”

You must know that hunting is not a dinner party, there is no room for half a mile, and Avalon is not a paradise after all, there are many other creatures living here before the orcs came, and there are few to mess with. Every year there are hunters who die for hunting, so there is nothing wrong with being careful.

Solam they learn to hunt not only to learn skills, but also to learn how to distinguish poisonous plants, how to avoid encountering those dangerous creatures, orcs are belligerent, but hunting is of course to find good prey, orcs are just not smart and not really stupid, nothing to go to those fierce beasts to start, then it is not hunting, directly change to life.

In Avalon, the winter wind and snow are quite powerful, and at that time hunting is very important for the nomadic orcs, and the wild animals hunted have become a very important source of food. So every orc man has to learn hunting, which is a combat skill, and more importantly, this is a life skill.

In this way, Solam and they began to learn to hunt with Trick, and since then, people can see that Solam and they carry a huge battle axe on their backs all day long and follow their second uncle out, sometimes they can bring back some rabbits, squirrels and other small prey, but more often they are full of embarrassment. But everyone else is not surprised by this, they all came here like this.

Speaking of which, Solam has a lot of opinions about the tomahawk that he has to carry on his back every day, and it is no problem to say that he has to pick up this axe, but it would be a joke to say that it is used for battle, that thing weighs at least eighty pounds, and it is all a burden to carry it on his back, let alone fight. Nine times out of ten, all his embarrassment was dragged down by this broken axe. But the old man didn't allow him not to bring it, the old man said that weapons are the second life of a warrior, can anyone be unfamiliar with their second life?

So, although Soram thinks this is nonsense, it's useless, you have to bring it, and it should be taken as a weight-bearing exercise.

Two years later

Winter in Avalon arrived, and soon after the onset of winter, heavy snow covered the whole of Avalon. Wild animals that stay in the mountains in the summer will also migrate to the bottom of the mountain with the arrival of heavy snow, and mountain goats, snow deer, and Juli deer will run to the forest below the mountain to feed. Of course, those ferocious carnivores that usually live above the snow line will also run to the forest to spend the winter. So in winter, the danger level of the forest immediately rises by several notches.

The Unfrozen Valley, a valley east of Avalon, is a valley that protects the valley from wind and snow because of the cliffs on both sides of the valley, so the Warsong Clan comes here every winter to ensure that their livestock can survive the harsh winter outside in this safe haven.

The tent area of the chief's house has just been lit up. Trick rubbed his hands together, kept pacing in circles, looking nervously at his tent, his face was very anxious, you must know that the second child of the chief's family was born with facial paralysis, always expressionless, and the other people were afraid of him, and it was impossible to see other expressions on his face. But no one cared about this at the moment, and the old man and Krumsh were also looking nervously at the tent outside the tent, and looked outside from time to time.

From time to time, there were screams of women in the tent, and the voices of other women comforting and encouraging, and from time to time women came in and out with hot water.

"Coming, coming" Suddenly Aunt Solari's voice came from the side, and Aunt Solari came from outside with her arms on her arms.

"How's it going, are you raw?" Mama Garom asked with a covered face as she greeted him.

"No, I've been screaming, but I just can't give birth." Trick hurriedly replied, and asked nervously, "Nothing will happen?" He didn't give his eldest brother a chance to speak, but at this time, Krumsh didn't have the heart to think about it, and looked at Mama Garom nervously.

"What can happen, this means that the child is strong and can't come out for the time being, it's okay, I'll go in and take a look." Mama Garome hurriedly comforted her and went into the tent with Aunt Solaari.

Hearing Mama Garrom's words, Trick seemed to be reassured, but still looked nervously at the tent. His eldest brother hurriedly patted him on the shoulder: "The grandma who is okay is here, Zaira will be fine, and the child will be fine." ”
