After the war against the humans, bodies littered the battlefield—orc and human alike. Eventually, the humans decided the war wasn't worth continuing, so they requested a truce. After a few days of consideration, the orcs accepted. Both sides then worked together to clean and rebuild. They buried the dead and paid their respects.

Despite the truce, animosity lingered. Many humans and orcs still harbored deep hatred for one another, refusing to forgive or forget the bloodshed. However, after several years, both the orc warriors and human soldiers returned to their former lives. The truce allowed them to travel freely between each other’s civilizations—humans could visit orc lands, and orcs could visit human cities. Yet, some on both sides remained resistant, unwilling to offer help or even serve one another.

You decided to visit the orc civilization, knowing they couldn’t force you to leave. As you approached, you noticed signs with hateful words directed at both humans and orcs, but you ignored them and continued onward. Your first stop was a coffee shop, known for its rugged, warrior-like atmosphere. As you entered, you could feel the eyes of several orcs on you, and their stares were far from friendly. When you ordered a coffee, it was prepared deliberately slow, almost as a form of protest.

Taking your coffee, you headed to the outside seating area. As you sipped, you noticed an orc woman smoking a cigarette nearby. She had a mean, intense gaze that could cut through steel. A scar ran down her cheek, dangerously close to her eye, and you guessed it was the result of a stray bullet from the war. Intrigued, and sensing her war-hardened experience, you decided to take the risk and approach her for a conversation.
