When everyone else woke up for the morning, Rae was in a wonderful mood.
Not only did she get her fight, she also managed to get a good trade out of the Orcs. After she won a flute carved from monster bones in the first fight, and an antler handled dagger in the second, she managed to trade the Orcs the rice she brought as a wager for a necklace made of Sand Mouse skulls.
She was currently wearing it to annoy Hawk.
To him, mice were nothing more than food. But Rae found that the small skulls made wonderful accessories. The Orcs even gave them war paint and stuck shiny stones in the eye sockets.
"Did you get your power level stabilized?" Karl asked as Rae sat down with them at breakfast.
Rae nodded. "Yeah, I went to stretch my legs a little last night. There is a group of Orcs not too far away, and they agreed to spar with me. That's where I got my new necklace."
"How big is the tribe? Should we go offer them a trade?" Tessa asked.
