loren
Loren wasn’t a woodcutter, no, but he also wasn’t an idiot. So it didn’t take him long to notice that the tree he’d selected was, well, falling apart. He ordered the ogre to halt so he could take a closer look at the tree. Sure enough, when he examined it more closely he saw the tell-tale signs of rot. Sighing, he ordered the ogre to lower it to the ground and chop it into smaller pieces; at the very least he could do what he could to help the natural process along a little bit.
However, he was distracted from his actions by the shouting. It sounded like Deimos, and it sounded even more like the general might need some help. If that was the case, the summoner’s next steps were clear. He ordered the ogre to scoop him up, one-handed, the axe in the other, and then told it to sprint towards the distant shouting.
It didn’t take long to find the source of the problem. Loren frowned at the sight, using every ounce of training to make sure that there wasn’t any immediate danger. If anything, it was kind of a funny sight, big strong tough guy Deimos fending off an owl. Still, the Launceleyn should probably help out. After getting set down and taking the axe he dismissed the ogre. ”Can you weaken them with your life drain? If you do, we can relocate them safely and then I can heal them.” Of course, the summoner didn’t know if Deimos was capable of anything less than nonlethal actions, nor did he know how the owls would react to being removed from their home. "I'd rather not kill them. They're just defending their home. And each other." The injured owl made his heart ache a little bit.
