Choose Your Own Adventure A22

 You stay hidden for a while.  You are helpless to save the captives but perhaps you can at least see what will happen to them.  But then more orcs arrive with more stripped captives.  

"More runaways found," an orc announces.  You realize they are more women from your city.  It seems many had managed to escape the city.  But now they were being rounded up.  You realize that will be your fate if you do not get far away as quickly as possible.

"Alright let's get these cunts back to the city," an orc calls and the orcs begin escorting the coffle west, back in the direction you had come, towards the city.  You want to help these poor women but there are too many orcs.  It is not like you would stand a chance against even one orcs, let alone many.  You watch helplessly and in anguish as the captives are taken away.  You pray that Anthea and Aurora will be alright.  You pray that all of those poor women will be alright.  But you know that they will not be.  They have a brutal lifetime of slavery ahead of them.  

The only thing you can do is try to avoid that same fate.  You start to head east again, in the opposite direction of the orcs.  You have made it so far, and you can only pray you do not fall into the grasp of the vile orcs.
