*Crystal's Fortified Ruin*

[Palthera]

*Crystal grins*

That will have to do I suppose. You know, I won't be offended if you don't want to use the fork. It's not like you're eating something gooey or anything...

This is good. More than makes up for the biscuits, my grandmother may be many things, but cook is not one of them.

*Crystal shrugs*

The fact you think my grandmother wise is faintly ominous... What does "stargush" mean? Not familiar with that word... I couldn't feel shamed by you Vau, the things I think are important don't really include table manners. *her expression is briefly angry* Not stabbing unconscious people on the floor rates so much higher and I can at least rely on you not to do that. *she smiles again, banishing the frown*

Stargûsh is ancestor, elder *rrrrr*. Why you think I *growl* ominous? Not ever mean harm to her *rrrrr*.

It different for golug *rrrrr* spend many year still child even though grown full size *rrrrr* uruk not really child when can hold knife unsupported and *growl* quick become full size. Can be considered stargûsh in few dozen winters. That is maybe why kaalgrisch can find time for beauty *rrrrr* art and song while uruk know little more than mauzauk.

*Vau's face becomes distant and clouds again with a touch of bleakness*

I never said I thought you were ominous. I know you would never hurt any of my family.

And you get more than just war, Vau, you know all three that you just mentioned. Art in your poetry and music in your songs. *smiles* Time for all these things in between the fighting.

*Abruptly the bleak look vanishes and Vau resumes picking over the food.*

*Crystal looks faintly amused*

Would this be a good time to point out that I'm six years older than you? You were talking as though you are terribly old.

And I just think that most orcs don't make the effort towards music and art, I don't think they know that it's an option. They certainly don't lack the capacity as I've heard lots of orcs sing, sometimes not good, but clearly the appreciation for music is there as much as it's there for any human or elf - some of them can't sing well either...

Uruk can live many winters, but most not. *growl* Baalaksharlgolug not even adult in time take for uruk get full size and die in battle twice over. Much less haste in growth so *rrrrr* can take time to metaphor: take in view.

Uruk like I know aklash, but never know how *growl* important until first hear your songs in Mercia.

*Crystal smiles*

Don't have to tell when it's a metaphor Vau. Maybe orcs just think faster because they grow up faster, so you learn the same things, only quicker. Grask liked the music when he first joined us too, maybe it's a different sort of music?

Not know how uruk could learn quicker, *growl* think we learn less because we *rrrrr* skip parts that not seem *snarl* essential.

*Crystal shrugs*

You know quite a lot more about some stuff than I do, so clearly my education missed stuff yours included. Like animals for you, plants for me. You learn what people want to teach you, there's lots of stuff most orcs know that I don't. *grins* Like navigating the country without getting lost.

I've spent the whole of my life wandering from place to place, you'd think something would stick. But I just don't notice... landmarks, geography... it's all just scenery to me. Unless it's pretty, and then it's still just scenery, without location. Just a picture. Just doesn't stick in my head.

People are fine, places... not so much...

*rrrrr* I see ambush points... *growl* cover... *rrr* high ground to claim... defensive points... prey trails and *rrr* hides.

People not remember as easy *rrrrr* mostly kaalgrisch smell similar...

*Crystal smiles crookedly*

We're a very odd pair really. Filling the pieces missing in the other, making one whole between us. *grins* One very impressive whole though, very much above average.
