Book Text:

Freed of any obligations of
duty, the soldiers that
accompanied me and I set out
in search of a fortress that
had not yet fallen. We
traveled and fought for
countless weeks only to be
greeted by death and misery at
each destination, what
survivors did remain at the
ruined strongholds of our once
great empire often joined us
in our search for sanctuary or
at the very least a place to
rebuild our fallen society.
Gradually as we traveled
across Tunaria, what began
as a small unit from the
Fortress of Krithgor became
a large caravan of refugees.
We settled in the Feerott
Marshlands near the ruins of
one of the Rallosian Empires
greatest strongholds. A



handful of capable warriors
among us set out to the west
in search of survivors at the
locations of the Rathes
executions and the death of
Murdunk. Only two of the
search party returned alive.
They spoke of terrible
devastation, Giants that were
once allies of the Ogre people
attacking without provocation,
and of ferocious one-eyed
giants that now guarded the
valleys and canyons of the
Mountains of the Rathes
Demise.
So it came to pass that the
Feerott Marsh became the new
home of we, the Ogre people.
The men took on duties of
hunting food in addition to
protecting the women and
children from the wild beasts
of the marsh. The women



harvested and cultivated what
forms of crops could be grown
in the marshy soil. The
children did nothing, and this
instilled fear into our minds
and hearts.
The children born to us
survivors of the collapse of
the Rallosian Empire were
noticeably and frighteningly
different than children of
previous generations. This
new generation of Ogres was
for the most part hairless,
only females showed any
ability to grow hair and even
then it was thin and straggly.
The flesh of the youngsters
was of a paler complexion
and warty and course,
they suffered frequently from
conditions that turned their
eyes bloodshot, made their
noses runny, and they often



drooled incessantly. It soon
became apparent however
that these physical conditions
were the least of our worries
for they were still physically
strong and enduring. It was
their minds that concerned us
the most.
