Back at Sanctuary, things were working as per usual. The ones in teaching positions taught, and the ones with tasks and responsibilities tried to fulfill them.
In the case of Dakgu and Gurln, these responsibilities also involved exploring the plains and thickets looking for tribes to assimilate into Sanctuary. These orc search expeditions were rather successful, especially now that the orcs partaking in it were growing in both experience and power.
With this newfound strength, they could easily subdue the enemies with no deaths and nothing but both small and large injuries.
This wasn't due to Ed. The announcement about buying upgrades was made but Ed would only allow purchases on a weekly basis and with a limited quota. The point was not to become the richest orc alive by making them premium goods, it was just to save his time.
I'm tired so good night but let's hear some name suggestions!
