I had to re-read the campaign - it's been a while since I've played ATTB. The opening sequence to scenario 3 is from the perspective of the enemy mage Rotharik, but in such as way as to generate some measure of empathy for him - it appears he did not kidnap Baran (Arvith's brother, together the eponymous Brothers) without reason. He mentions a group of orcs who travelled with him (the ones who stand guard at the castle gates), as well as an orcish warlord Tairach whom he fears for some reason (it's never explained why but it appears he hopes to deliver Baran to Tairach to placate him). These are separate factions of orcs, Rotharik's and Tairach's.

I'll let someone more knowledgeable than I am advise as to the proper protocols for asking localisation-related questions - it may well be that the e-mail list is supposed to be for general announcements rather than asking questions.

Hi again,

Can somebody please explain me the next sentences from A Tale of Two Brothers, from Rotharik's journal?

"The orcs who came with us stand guard at the gates, and I am gathering all of my servants to me in the inner sanctum. But ill fate awaits. Whether I defeat this horse-warrior or no, the orcs will still come for me; they have been scouring the borderlands and raiding the northern farm country in search of us."

If he is with orcs, how is it that the orcs are searching for him to kill him? Or maybe I misunderstood it? (I can accept he does not trust orcs and now that Mordak is dead he knows he will be killed by them eventually, but don't understand why should some orcs search for him while others protect him.)

Also if there is a different preferred forum to ask such questions please tell me because this mailing list contains only my questions lately, so maybe I'm not using the proper communication channels and spamming too many innocent translators. :)

Thanks,
  Andris
