The Empires of Terra

'Alright I'll return to my quarters now if that's alright, unless you have some sort of quarantine procedure' Mol said and prepared to leave. Mol walked back to his room and sat, deep in thought. He had some ideas of what he would do but he needed to prepare first. It was obvious that he wouldn't be able to gain anyone's help in the matter so he was thinking of ways he would solve this himself. For the moment he needed to rest and think this over, so he lied his head on his pillow and rested, thinking.

The Empires of Terra

Mol sighed, frustrated, a fair bit of his memory had come back and he knew a bit more of what he was facing, although he knew with all of the formalities in Xian meant that he wouldn't be able to bring it to Lings attention without significant evidence. 'Where is the Ryu.. whatever being kept?' Mol asked the nurse.

Mol walked over to Wu 'Alright I know I'm probably coming on a bit sudden here but I think that book has immense power, I mean, I recall it being called Dru Shikhdub but the others here recall it being called Ryu... Something or other. What do you remember?'

Ocrad, 46th Border Outpost.

'Druziak!' one of the orks called and a goblin translator stepped up 'Drugh Tako!' the ork said.
'Please state your intentions' the goblin asked.

The Empires of Terra

'Thanks, I appreciate it' Mol said, and let the nurse walk him to where Wu was being kept.

The Empires of Terra

Mol chuckled 'No I wanted to talk to Wu, do you have the time to escort me there?'

The Empires of Terra

Mol thought 'So the same group of demons that created the Orks and Trolls now rule Xian'. He knew what he needed to do. Weakly he stood and prepared for the dizziness, which came but was much easier to bear than before. He exited the room and looked around for someone to escort him to Wu.

Since, well; why not, I decided to elaborate on my own countries hierarchy. Ranking in descending importance.

Tier 1: The Fell Beasts
Tier 2: High Darok, Daroks
Tier 3: Military Generals that have not ascended to Darok status (Burak's), Veteran Military Division Leaders (Onguk's), Priests who commune with the fell beasts (those who are veteran warriors)
Tier 4: Onguk's, Veteran troops (Turak's), Priests who commune with the fell beasts (Unblooded)
Tier 5: Turak's, Blacksmiths
Tier 6: Unblooded/Not seen combat but will (Nubok's), other Craftsmen
Tier 7: Failiures/those who did not pass the Nubok tests (I will elaborate on this later), Ork and Troll Peasants, Ork and Troll Slaves
Tier 8: Foreigners Of High Importance, Non-Ork or Troll Peasants, Non-Ork or Troll Slaves
Tier 9: Foreigners Of Low Importance, The Dishonoured (Those who betrayed Ocrad or committed too many, or a horrible crime, they are called 'Karud')
Tier 10: Beasts of the Earth, Trees and Plants, Other Non-intelligent things

These are the ranks of the army.

Tier 1: High Darok, Daroks (Command up to 10,000 troops each, govern cities)
Tier 2: Buraks (they assist the Daroks and usually ascend to that status if they are successful, sometimes govern small towns)
Tier 3: Onguks (they command about 500-1,000 Troops each and carry out the Daroks orders)
Tier 4: Garduks (they command about 100-200 troops each and carry out the Daroks or Onguks orders)
Tier 5: Honuks (they command about 10-50 troops each and carry out the Daroks, Onguks and Garduks orders, often stationed at outposts)
Tier 6: Turaks (they command themselves and answer to Daroks, Onguks, Garduks and Honuks)
Tier 7: Nuraks (inexperienced soldiers that have not yet seen battle)

'No no, it was called Dru Shikhdub, I remember because I read it to learn about the origins of the orks and trolls, and you said you found the scholar, dancing around with it? Perhaps we need to investigate this further, although I'd prefer not to read the book again' Mol replied, confused.

The Empires of Terra

Alright.

The Empires of Terra

Mol thought hard, digging through the memories of visions and nonsensical images to see if he could find any evidence of what happened. After a few seconds he clicked. 'I was reading a book, 'Dru Shikhdub', which means 'the peoples beginnings', I had heard a voice in my head as I read it and, there were visions of past battles. I was with Wu and I remember tearing myself away from the book and after that, nothing. Where is Wu by the way?'

(OOC If any non-ork or troll reads the book it is just blank with a few inkblots within the pages, but since its been in the library for ages they hadn't noticed it before. If a demon reads it, it has an account of the battles between the Totudage and the Bagutoga but doesn't mention the orks and trolls at all, also the title is not Dru Shikhdub to a non-ork/troll it is just blank and to a demon it is something related to the war).
