Orcish Unrest

Fifteen years ago, an army of orcish refugees from the Sawtooth Vale approached New Luxberg, and were offered land in exchange for military service. Several months ago, their term of service ended and they returned to New Luxberg to claim payment. The government however has yet to honour its agreement, and the orcs grow restless outside the city gates. The general, the Old Wolf, struggles to control his people. Some have cut their losses and deserted. The threat of violence hangs in the air.

The Pathfinders have observed one orc in army gear conspiring with a necromancer to taint New Luxberg's water supply, and another orc in similar gear carry out a hit on local drug dealers. It's not clear what's going on, but it doesn't seem to be the Old Wolf's style.

Lieutenant Karsk, the Young Wolf, is annoyed by the situation and calls for a diplomatic resolution. The Pathfinders believe that they may be able to use their contacts and growing personal reputations to push for the orcs to be given their land - though it may take a while, and it's best to keep an eye out for trouble in the meantime. Ex-Lieutenant Gronka has suggested the party speak to Sister Marigold, an elven army healer working with the orcs, for more information.
