Grubba stood there. Staring at them. Two enormously tall totem poles that stuck up in the middle of the new Urk Furt. Two ugly totem poles in her opinion. She couldn't gruk (understand) why the chief, Da Gnarlug, loved them so much. They smelled of flappiez (gargoyles) and they were awkward, out of place.
She shook her head in disappointment and confusion.
"Mi tink cheef krazi en da hed. Dem ib ooglie bratug."

She started off toward what would be her future cooking area. (it was hers because she had been marking it for the past two days to make all other orcs aware). Taking a couple of steps forward, her elbow inadvertantly knocked hard into one of the totem poles. Yelping out suddenly, she jumped backward, her large belly still rippling from the jolt.
"DEM TOOPID TO'TUMZ!"

Angrily she grabbed up her club and swatted the totem hard several times til she was out of breath, (which doesnt take much given her naturally large girth). Snorting in disgust and stubborness, Grubba went to a nearby wall and yanked off a torch.
Walking back over to the totem, she grinned with comtemptuous evil and bent down, holding the torch to the totem. She waited. Looking way up at the tall stone totem with confusion scrunched brows, she muttered. "Ib et mojo er jus tu ooglie bratug tu di?"
Leaving the torch on the ground by the totem, she again looked up at it. "BAH!" Grubba was just no match for the totems or the chief's love for them. She stomped off. Important work awaited her. She needed to finish marking her cooking area.

Stirring from his post-pillage nap in the stables, Gomoku awakens to the sounds of a struggle.
Unsure if the fort is in jeopardy he reaches for his crossbow, eyes scanning his surroundings for intruders.
Had the caravan he ransacked earlier followed him back to the fort?
Had they gathered more men and come to detach his head from his body to see it placed firmly on their mantel?
His imagination grinded to a hault as he spied the source of the commotion...
He can see Grubba at the other end of the fort having it out with a large stone pillar that hadn't been there earlier.
What she was saying, he couldn't quite make out, but she was definitely upset.
Gomoku took his hand off his weapon and layed back down, content to watch.
Unfortunately he had woken too late and missed the better part of the altercation...
Grubba threw her hands up in frustration and stormed off.

Gomoku pulled himself up by the stable rail and sauntered over towards the pillars to investigate.
Upon closer inspection he could see they were not pillars at all, but totems of some sort.
He had seen things similar in tribal camps, large wood carvings ordained with colorful paints and covered with animal like expressions.
These were lacking in such decoration.
Naturally not knowing what it is, he took to orcish problem solving and gave the object a lick.
"YUK! dis nub hab flay'vur" he exclaimed as he swished his tongue around in his mouth.
Moving onto the next leg of his investigation he rubbed it with his hand and found the texture to be quite smooth.
Gomoku moved closer to the totem and began rubbing himself against it.
a half minute or so passed and he had failed to be aroused by the structure.
he lazily took a look straight up to the top and saw what appeared to be a horned face of some sort.
quickly he Gomoku stepped back from the object and raised his crossbow at the unknown beast and fired off a bolt.
the bolt struck with a sharp PING and ricocheted off into a corner.

"UG!" Gomoku thought "wut iz dis ting?! nub eet et, nub mayt wid et, nub klomp et! wut gud dis ting fer?!?"

frustrated and horny he wandered off in the direction he had seen Grubba go shouting

"Grubba! ju try mayt wid dis ting? et nub put owt!"

The commotion below stirs Gnarlug from his slumber high above the furt..........

"WUJ....toopid clan.....NUB BLAH WIB DA CHEEB NOCT" Gnarlug shouts as he walks to the edge of the platform......

"Nub clan???" Gnarlug says scratching his head as he looks into the courtyard where the noisy orcs had already wandered away.....

Confused he turns away slowly when he notices the heads atop the totems......

"Ug der bubhosh hedz...wuj blah wib Da Gnarlug nub noct??" Gnarlug asks as he stares at the totem expecting an answer........

"Wuj runtee blah agh Da Gnarlug nub noct???" Gnarlug asks again this time in a angry serious tone............

"Nub blah wib da Cheeb?"

"Ju neeb grub tu blah?" Gnarlug asks as he shoves a cooked bird into the totem's mouth........

Confused and frustrated Gnarlug watches the poultry fall to the ground...........

"Nubhosh grub bubhosh hed??"

"Nub eet grub nub blah wib da cheeb??" Sad and concerned Gnarlug feels the totem's forehead for a temperature........

"Da Cheeb lub ju bubhosh hedz ju nub clompd...."

Gnarlug sulks to the floor and affectionately wraps his arms around the totem head and falls back asleep..................
