Silus waited for the hunters to finish their tests before dismissing them for a bit while he went to speak with the mage and see the results. After he returned he put his team through some more drill exercises to see their physical condition and limitations. And after a long day of training and testing he let them all go and rest for the night letting them know that they would be setting off the next morning to their first mission. 

He woke up early the next morning to prepare for the mission. And at around 6 a.m. he woke up his team and gathered them for a briefing before they would set out. He stood in front of his team fully dressed in his armor, but not carrying his weapons. 

"Alright everyone, Old Heidrek has given us our first mission. Our scouts have been tracking a tribe of Orcs that have been terrorizing villages up north near the Tachikawan border. We have two days to get to the village of Bright Tree and set up defenses. Our scouts will steer the orcs there and it will be our job to eliminate the threat. The townsfolk have been warned and civilians are being taken to a safe place while some local malita men have volunteered to help us fight the Orcs. As of right now they are creating defenses for us to use in holding the village. Our latest count from the scouts say that the orcs numbers are somewhere from 20 to 25 with at least one Big Warbreed leading the tribe. We will be outnumbered, but we will have a defensible position and we will be able to funnel the orc into a kill zone. That is all the information I have, so unless any of you have questions you are dismissed, we leave in one hour so go and make your preparations." Before moving Silus waited for any questions. If there were to be none he would then move to the Armory to check with Christoth if his weapons were ready. Christoth sat outside his smithy taking a break smoking his pipe in the morning air. Luna was out in the garden picking medical herbs to send along with Silus' team to treat any minor injuries. And Heidrek sat in the Grand Hall relaxing before cooking the morning meal for the rest of the hunters who would stay behind.
