Bred by the Star Orcs

Everything changed the moment Kirsten Sungbaard stepped through the door. It was just like all the others in Madreg’s dungeon. There had been a wooden door, scuffed and creaking as she pulled it open. A cool, darkened room beyond. She waited a moment at the threshold of the door, feeling an unusual chill in the air, but hearing nothing. She ventured through the door and found herself somewhere else entirely.

Flashing red light appeared as if by magic from a glass dome upon the ceiling. She was no longer in a room at all, but in a long corridor that seemed to be made from metal or perhaps some sort of polished white stone. There were odd pipes and unrecognizable symbols printed on the walls. Everything was constructed with the precision of a temple and yet it all seemed scuffed and worn. Steam hissed from a vent and there was an odd smell in the air. Like sweat and blood.

Kirsten gripped her sword and advanced beneath the flashing red lights. A line of glass domes affixed to the ceiling contained the magical lights for as far as Kirsten could see. She heard a rumble from all around her, like the clatter of a great water wheel, and felt a shudder run through her feet. The lights in the domes flickered and the long hallway heaved like the deck of a storm-tossed ship.

“This is no place watched by the gods,” she muttered, her apprehension growing. “Where have I been flung by that mad wizard’s magic?”

She reached a door that cycled open as she approached and revealed a wide chamber with tables affixed to the floor and chairs scattered haphazardly around the room. She entered cautiously, smelling moldering food and noticing strange machinery. She recognized some sort of dining hall by the cutlery strewn about the floor. Whatever built this place had roughly human hands judging by the forks and knives.

Another rumble shook the floor, this time much nearer. It was followed a moment later by an explosion in the hallway outside the dining hall. She turned just as the door slid open. Smoke belched through the door and a hulking green brute stepped it into the room.

An orc! Bulkier and slightly greener than the orcs she had met before, but definitely an orc, with a bald head, pointed ears, and savage tusks jutting from its huge, squared jaw. Its beady red eyes flashed with fury when it saw Kirsten standing with her sword.

Her instinct was to fight or run, but she knew orcs to be reasonable under some circumstances. She hoped that if she appeared friendly, she might be able to parley with the brute.

“Greetings,” she said. “Does this place belong to you?”

“Dragk! Grokoo dorbo ug dug!” The orc’s snarled words meant nothing to Kirsten, but she understood his intent was not friendly as he advanced on her with a strange boxy object held in one hand and some sort of clamp held in the other.

She raised her sword to defend herself far too late.
