====The White Mother==== Orcs of the White Mother have existed since before the founding of the Order of Shadow. There have always been dissidents and doubters, and rebellions, even large-scale ones, have occurred. However, there has not been a time before when the orcs have been so far from their masters. Though the Keepers of Shadow expend great amounts of resources in order to exert influence over the orcs south of the Fortress Wall, control in these areas invariably falls to the Order of Shadow, the Night Princes, and the kurasatch udareen. Under such circumstances, the doubting orcs have prospered. '''<font color="990066">Bill's Question:</font>''' I don't understand. "The Order of Shadow, the Night Princes, and the kurasatch udareen" are the ones who ''normally'' control orcs, aren't they? The context seems to imply that they would have ''less'' influence in the areas south of the Fortress Wall, but that's not what it says here. : <font color=red>ANSWER: This is something that, again, might be best discovered in game. It is semi-true that those groups control the orcs, but not completely. The orcs are controlled by the Enemy overall. Their hate is fuelled by the Shadow in the North. How or why that's a problem is for you to decipher. BTW, for your reference.... :: '''"the Fortress Wall"''' - Though legends abound about the great Fortress Wall of the Northern Marches, there is no doubt that the ancient defense works is a real part of history and one that played a major role in staving off the Shadow in the Second Age. The Fortress Wall is not a single edifice but a long chain of forts, keeps, and towers that stretches along the border of the northern frontiers. Built during the heady days following the first defeat of the Shadow, the Wall was a collective effort of the free races of Eredane, a testament to their combined strength and their shared fear of Izrador. Today the ruins of the Fortress Wall are a bitter legacy, standing like a row of gaped and broken teeth across a desolate land. Most of the individual keeps are gone, lost to the ravages of war and time. A few are still held by forces of the Shadow, but even most of the battlements they once took have been abandoned as the armies moved south.</font> The chosen champion of the White Mothers is Grial Fey-Killer, though he does not know it himself. For the last two decades, as Grial waged his war, the White Mother orcs have infiltrated his command structure, and do their utmost to sway the warlord to their views. Already, the seeds of doubt have been planted in his heart, but they have not sprung out yet. For now, The White Mothers await the right time before springing their plan to life, still believing that there is a god, but believing that he cares not for the orcs. In the meantime, they are content with letting the orcs whittle away at the other races, who they by no means see as allies. '''<font color="990066">Bill's Question:</font>''' Does Kyuad have more information on Grial? I think he does, somewhere. : <font color=red>ANSWER: Maybe. I'm not sure where/how. Kyuad would know that (as Durgaz told him) Grial was seen in his visions dealing with Vrolk in the past outside the Obsidian Spire, what they dealt with is unknown. Other than that I'm not sure what you're thinking about. There is all the "stuff he knows" under Kyuad's wiki page that I've posted for you. </font>
