Back in the Guard House, people couldn't help but gather around at a distance, watching the new half-orc sit hanging around the Guard Station.
Instead of going to his dorms, Baku insisted on waiting there for news of Gochi. So now there was a 2-meter bulky half-animal sitting by the door of the Guard Station.
He was sitting crossed-legged and crossed arms, eyes closed and very still, the only thing moving was his white silky fur as the wind blew on it.
There were some civilians who needed to go inside to report something. But seeing him there, they shivered and almost ran away.
After some thought though, they didn't. They knew of Alterra's very strict rules and regulations. After all, nothing dangerous would've been allowed to roam like this and make camp.
Still, when they slowly headed to the door, they were comically walking sideways so they were facing the half-orc with raised arms at all times, just in case.
