Orcs will richly reward anyone who saves their or a loved one's life.

So when a starving, mangy, abandoned cat was found eating a snake in the chief's newly born infant's room, it became the most loved and cherished feline in the land.

It was healed, groomed and fed only the most tender meat and freshest cuts of fish.

A statue was built and warriors battled in it's honor.

Years later, it's descendants are still revered by them.
