Pigs, or is it boars?

Pigs, or is it boars?

Waking up, Ben found himself in an unfamiliar place, taking a moment to gather himself, he remembered. ' Ohhh I am on another world.... and I slept in an Orc's bed...' sitting he remembers the day before and with a sarcastic smile on his face he says "Well, there could be worse fates, than being guest in an orc's house I think...? " feeling the need to relieve himself, Ben goes outside his room in a common room, looking around and not seeing Grey, he shouts for him

" Greyy I need to go relieve myself" taking a moment of pause, he thinks ' Should I ask him where is the bathroom, does he even have one? ' but Ben does not hear anything from Grey's room. So he goes outside, for the first time that he got in this world.

Outside the house, there is an enclosure that is made of Big wooden fences, not managing to see anything inside the enclosure, besides some stones, Ben starts looking for a place to relieve himself. Fortunately, he manages to find an outhouse behind the farm.

Finally relieved, Ben decides to explore the farm and itțs inhabitants, besides the house where they live, there is the weird empty enclosure, so Ben decides to start with it. Getting closer he is amazed at the size of the fences, Big fences, at least 2 m tall all around it makes it look more like a city wall than a simple enclosure to keep animals inside.

Getting at the gate, he manages to unlock it and get inside, carefully closing it behind him so no animals escape, even though he did not see any till now. Looking inside he sees that the whole space inside the enclosure is full of mud, and there are about 20 big mud mounds inside, without any animals, Ben wonders ' why did Grey build such big walls, if there are not even animals inside it....' getting close to a mound, he climbs it, trying to get a better view of the whole enclosure, wondering if maybe the animals are so small that he can not see them. Managing to climb to the top, he is interrupted by shaking of the earth, he feels like the earth under his feet is trying to run, frightened, he quickly hugs the mound, till the shaking stops.

'What happened, was that an earthquake? ' just as he thinks that, the tremor returns but this time, he even feels, that the mound is almost ripped out of the ground by the force.

Congratulating himself, for managing to hold on the mound , through the earthquake , Ben getțs up , starting to review the pen again , but he manages to see a figure, coming through the trees, Ben manages to see itșs face, happiness flickers on Ben's face before he screams, "Greyy, I am here , Where have you gone, I did not find your inside the housee"

Grey , hearing the noise looks over. A dumbfounded look appears on his face. before he erupts in agitation, he drops his axe and running over he starts shouting and waving his arms, he tries to make Ben get out of the pen.

"Whatt, I can not hear youu!!" Bențs scream makes Grey even more agitated, running, trying to reach the gate of the pen, he points behind Ben multiple times.

Ben confused, turns to see what Grey is pointing at, but he remains dumbfounded, the big and small mounds inside the pen, start shaking before they get up.

As it appears, they were not mounds... they were giant pigs, so dirty and big that they resembled more like mounds or rocks than actually living beings, Woken up by Ben's screams, they start looking about for the source of the noise. The giant pigs look like normal pigs, but a lot larger and fatter, they're fur is longer and they have tusks jutting out of their mouths.

Ben regains his witts and in a moment, a horrifying thought passes through his mind, he looks down and hastily jumps off the mound and starts running. That was just in time because just as he looked down, his mound also started getting up, quickly transforming from a harmless mound or rock, into a giant pig that had 1 m tusks and razor-sharp teeth .

The boars quickly find the intruder, and quickly chase after him, they are massive, round balls of fat that jiggle as they run, but they're speed is nothing to scoff at.

Ben looks behind him, and almost wishes he had not, there are at least 5 massive pigs who had reached maturity, and the others only being young ones, but still dangerous to a normal human. And they all chase him. Ben puts his focus into running, reaching the gate, he finds it locked. His face whitens in fright, but just in time, Grey also opens up the gate from the other side, letting Ben get out, and quickly closing it back again.

The pigs losing their target, seem unsure, they look for any food in the encirclement and not finding any, they sit down and curl themselves up, gaining the earlier form of natural landscape.

Grey looks at Ben who is panting, almost like his lungs will come out any moment now, and starts speaking " Why on the great mother, would you sit on a Munching Pig?"

Ben looks offended, taking big breaths he says with an innocent look on his face " I thought they were Rocks, why do the pigs look like rocks? and why are you keeping such dangerous pigs, in your backyard?"

Grey looks shocked at Ben's words, saying with a face dignified like he is talking about the rules of the universe.

"Munching pigs are the greatest livestock that orcs breed, With they're Title -Quik Gains- They can quickly become fat , and if you are a professional in the business of rearing pigs, you can even use that they're title and make the pigs run after they are fat enough, and in no time you will get a pig full of delicious muscle or you can even ride them in battle, they hide is thick enough, and they don't have any fear outside of they're natural predators, they eat everything else . Hum, what do you humans know about the greatness of munching pigs, they eat everything they have within reach, they are not picky eaters at all."

Grey's tirade about munching pigs is interrupted by Ben "Yea, not picky eaters, THEY WOULD EVEN EAT ME"

With an awkward face, Grey says " Well they might think you are delicious...."

Not knowing if he should be proud or indignation, Ben finally slumps his shoulders in defeat, at least knowing another fact about Grey, he is a pig fanatic...

"Can you at least tell me, why are pigs looking like stones and small mounds? at least that should not be normal...."

"Well..." says Grey a little ashamed " The munching pigs are great , but they are kinda lazy, and with no food in sight, they can remain unmoved for long periods of time, at such they gained the Title-Stone Lazy- but don't be fooled... " with a pick up of pride in his voice, he says "If any unsuspecting prey foolishly approaches them, then they will devour..." he stops, understanding that he is describing exactly what Ben had done .

"Anyway, let's get moving, there is a lot of work to be done, and you owe me for keeping you around..." saying so, he turns around, picks up his axe and goes inside the house, probably cleaning it and putting it back.

Ben remains fixed on the place and looks inside the pen, the stone looked like it moved a little, he quickly darts inside the house, screaming: " Don't let me alone with them..."
