 Hello, folks! I may or may not be gathering artifacts on my way to continue my main quest. Fair enough, right? Let's play the memory to this strange rock. Getting all manner of foulness into the air. Smoke in dust and rocks that burn the ground. If it does, this is a warning. I will not stay silent for long. Sort of like your mother. Don't tell your mother I said that. So this rock is... It is a rock, nothing more. And you needn't be afraid of a rock or doom which is silent to this very day. And sweetie, if you need a lesson from all this, here's a fine one. Even a foul place like that volcano can produce beautiful things. It was a happier life back then, wasn't it? This glassy obsidian stone is one of those volcanic rocks. It dates back to the Second Age, perhaps when the Dark Lord formed his initial bond with the volcano. These remnants of Rodruin's fury are prized for their hardness. They are often sharpened to make weapons. Fair enough, all fair and good. But it is not the task for today. Well, that's horrifying, completely and utterly. I don't want the fire to burn the world of men, by the way. Sounds like a terrible, terrible way for the world of men to go on about its business. Business is all I'm saying. Hello, orc-er. Orcs. What was an orc-er? Probably a mix between a ranger and an orc-er. Anyway, the spirit of Mordor saw Sauron Xerox relentlessly abuse lesser orcs in their violent struggles of power. Investigate how the power of the raid can exploit these struggles, piercing weak minds to bring down the enemy forces from within. One orc mind in particular shines as a blazing beacon of weakness. Let's go on with it then. Let us see. You know that, bag? You are not... Very trustworthy. What's most surprising is that he knows the meaning of the word jest. What a stupid orc, only cowardly. Yes, we are. Fun times for all around. His weakness that I can exploit. His fear of Kharagors will terrify him into a running, stumbling cowherd. If I can expose him to a Kharagor, he will lose some of his strengths and become an easier target. Invulnerable to ranged heavy attack and a gang leader. Fair enough. Remember, many weaknesses can only be exploited if you gain intel first. Right, so he's marked now. Is he going to try and attack me? Why not? Oh boy. Yeah, what could possibly go wrong? I'm not moving right now, by the way. He's community relief, isn't he? Okay, round back. They enter directly to the black hand, or show them more when I'm in the black hands in a circle. The commoner captain is just the first step of ratbags' plan to become a war chief. Large, grand plant. Hello. Let's see, defenders will block frontal attacks and must be hit from behind. Well, that's easy. Get the ranger, not me. I've played plenty of these games. See? That's not hard. Stop. Trying to get my... Well, collaborator, I suppose. I need him alive. Oi. Did you hear what I just said? I said, don't... Dutch him. And you, with his gusty little creature. No? Yeah. Plot twist, round back is the big bad of the game. Let's open those pens. I think I'll demote him with an entire head. I'm Gorov's right-of-head. I'm selling that in with anticipation. The drool of revenge. I'm drooling in anticipation and revenge already. I have to do this. Come on. This is annoying. There's literally... literally no point. Uh-oh. No, you wouldn't would you? But honestly, I kind of do. Hello! No, no, no, no, no, no. Unpleasant. Close enough, I suppose. I'm turning around, mate. Turn around, both of you. So it wasn't as much... staying stale as it was. Just... don't let them raise the alarm. I can actually live without, you know? Who said that? Uh-oh. Damn it. I failed. That was a failure. Complete another... Why is there no... Poor Orc. Come here, little Orc. You're there. Damn it. Rude Orcs. So... very... rude. No worries, I will end you all. Time to slush and cut and kill you all. See? Not that hard now. Is it? Oh, this... this is me. It really does. Mmm, got me off my game again. It's really annoying how just one time mistake can totally... ruin your... flow. Isn't it? Totally gets me out of it and destructs and denies and it murders. Well, not me, it's about everyone else. So, you know, a beautiful way to die. Fair enough, let's get up there, shall we? Hello, Orchun! And, buh-bye. Good sport to get some shut-eye. Goroth will kill you if he catches your nabbing. Goroth never comes here. He's always by the hunting camp. Oh, fantastic. Goroth's in the hunting camp. So much for him always being in the same place. A captain who fears his own beast. Fear is a powerful tool, Talion. Let's put Goroths to work. Fear. Well... Let's see. How exactly do I ride one of you things? Don't suppose... This is not going to be easy, is it? Well, we shall find out soon enough. We've created some disturbances in the camp and we might as well unlock this particular tower. Just to be safe. And never know if something will might could happen. Eat citadel to the light against the shadow. How poetic. Stop it, stop it. There you are. Lovely. Absolutely... Whoops. She's so sad right now. Stop running! Whoa. And now you die. Supposedly. Well, that was slightly anticlimactic. Buffy reports. Let's see then. Radbeck has got a primational, I suppose. Good for him. But honestly... Hey! You too! I need you to take a body back to my tent. I'm going to give me a trophy. Get lost, scum. Really take all this for go-raws. That's the filthy corpse I need you to carry. Now go! Go! Say your fissure. Damn. Be respectful. You don't heal worms. It'll be your area next time. Radbeck is your captain now. It's so nice to see you around the back. It's so nice to see Radbeck. Radbeck in command. Fascinating. Seeing the power struggles from the inside. And so I'm... The Batman. Or an assassin. By the way. I just can't resist myself. Mmm, power. Quite enough power. Excellent. Finally we unlocked Tier 2. Long overdue. I've got too many over these points. Let's see. Rain from stealth. Useful. I will unlock that by you know, playing main missions. Let's see. Showing daggers. Oh. Yes please. What else? What else? Both attacks same as an oryx-less will pin him in place. And last chance finisher. Wow. Awesome. But I prefer to take this one. Yeah, this one is hardcore. And will also take Brutalize. Wow. And also I can get either a bit more health or another Solrune slot. Let's take that one. Okay. I actually have plenty. Plenty of this. So I can take another bow slot as well. Should have marked my health shots as well, but hey. No matter. Let's put a few more runes in the place, shall we? Select rune and press X to destroy it and convert it to M. Fair enough. We've got two equipped ones and third one. Oh. Let's see. 50% chance to reduce melee damage received by 50%. Does not start with another Elven Grace Rune. Define to the end. Never surrender as you gain an additional last chance to return to the Fane Combat against Orcs. 8% defense. You know, I'm going to take I'm going to take Orc Slayer. For my bow, I will take what do I have for the bow? The Black Arrow. The Focus Depletion rate by 50%. I'm going to take that one probably. Yup. Oh, I've already got it equipped. My mistake. I never ride monsters, so I might as well take the Black Arrow. Sure. Let's purchase that one and let's put another rune in place. Reckless Hate for Combat Brand. I don't even know what a Combat Brand is, honestly. Oh. You mean the poison? Could be useful. No, I'm going to take that one. For now. I might always change it later. So, let's find two Orcs and test my newfound skills. Hello, hello, hello, little Mr. Orc. The nice thing is, I don't really have... Whoa! That was awesome. And goodbye. And goodbye to you as well, dear viewer. Thank you for tuning in. If you like this, please share, like, and subscribe for more. I'll see you soon. Hopefully. Bye!
