A head! A Black Iron Upper! I’ve scored big!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards, he knew nothing…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grey Stone was not the first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gradually, more and more half-orcs discovered the players’ undead nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This fact finally stirred panic among the half-orcs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They aren’t elves!
