As he got nearer, he decided to hail his approach. Ae spoke in the common tongue, yelling clearly as he could.
"Well met! I am Khar'Grim Glacierheart! May I have safe welcome!?" As he spoke, it was clear his voice was deep, with a distinct growling accent.

Alantha blinks when she sees an orc just walk up to the group. "Well this is new..." She walks up to the orc slowly, keeping her eyes on him. "Welcome Khar'Grim..I am Alantha..what brings someone like you to this place?"

Her mind prickled as she felt, not saw, the approach of something from outside the line of sight the fire offered her. Squinting through the dark, she watched as the oversized, hulking figure materialised, approaching with arms outstretched. A gesture of peace, belying his snarling features.
Chalindra immediately stood, striding towards the perimeter of light offered by the camp fire. She wrapped a hand around the arm of the petite Alantha and yanked her back with more force than was really necessary. To the orc that had made his entrance, her expression said all that she refused to speak.
Stop your approach.
"State your business, orc." She demanded, her voice a harsh bark. Eilistraee may teach her followers to welcome all, but Chalindra doubted it was at the price of their lives. Orcs were stupid, primal creatures that knew only to bring destruction, and she would not allow one to just swagger into her camp unchecked.

the Orc stopped, hands still raised and spread, and he grunted.
"i have come in search of a trade deal for my people." he said plainly. "a bad snowstorm destroyed most of our trade goods. we face a bad lack of food, clothes and other goods. i am an emmisary."
he was worried now, and instinct told him he should keep his hands closer to his weapons. he knew better though. if he did, he would only provoke the elves.

Alantha nods and turns to the other drow. "Put your weapons away..." She turns back to the orc. "Our leader isn't here at the moment, but I will be more then happy to help you in any way I can." She didn't like orcs, but this one seemed harmless. Even if he wasn't she had her magic to stop him from doing anything.

Silence waddled over to the orc and smiled at his greeting and response to the other visitors. "Welcome to the Outpost then, emissary of the orc. My name is Silence and I'm the camp mistress. Come," she gestured to the closest fire, "let us discuss more where it is warm." With those words, Silence walked back to the heat with a single hand on her belly.

Khar'Grim nodded, and followed the woman, his hands now at his sides. he assumed she was pregnant.
"it feels good to be by a fire again." he said. "thank you and your people for allowing me to rest here. are your people interested in trade?"

Chalindra's eyes narrowed, her lips pulled back in a silent snarl as the beast was simply welcomed into their camp with open arms. She seemed ready to contest this turn about, with force if necessary, but suddenly bowed her head, squeezing her eyes shut. A slight trembling overcame her, and when it finally subsided, her broad, scarred form somehow seemed smaller and less threatening.
"I apologise for my manner. Eilistraee welcomes all. Come orc, have a seat by the fire."
There was no trace of her former anger in her voice. So complete was the change that had overcome her, both physically and emotionally, that it seemed like an entirely different person stood before the assembled.
She shambled after the group, hovering by the pregnant emissary should she need assistance. Folding themselves by the fire, she seemed to have regained her composure completely, her mouth a taught line to keep in any harsh words that might escape from her.
"behave myself"?. i seriously hope that was a joke.

he removed the sling that held his spear, and set it in front of him, then sat down on his knees.
