Infiltration

Lorric crept silently through the woods moving silently and swiftly, he was an orc and had a talent for silent moving. He was cast out among his village because it was unusual among the orc race. He gripped a mace in one hand, large enough to be a two handed weapon among humans. He came to a large lake in the middle of the woods, the rising sun casting rays along the surface. He scanned the lake seeing a dark shape at the bottom, he smiled that was how he would get into the emperors castle. He took a deep breath before diving into the lake swimming down to the grate at the bottom. He ripped the grate off its hinges, before plunging down into the darkness. He broke to the surface of a pool gasping for breath he was in a cavern light glinting of the edges of the walls, he looked up and saw the moon shining though a hole in the ceiling. He climbed out of the water and looked around, there was a large metal door on one end of the cavern. He went up to the door and tried ripping it off its hinges but it wouldn't budge. He reached into his bag and brought out a stick of dynamite, he grabbed a torch off the wall and lit the string. He placed it against the door before diving into the water, BOOM! metal chunks went everywhere as the door was ripped to pieces. He went through the door and arrived in a long tunnel, as he looked closer he realized there was a dim light at the end of the passage and he moved towards it.
