  What if orcs really did come directly from Elves that were "Tortured, mutilated" as stated in the movies? Here is the sad tale of one of the hapless Elves.

• Straight From the Horses' Mouth by Chigger

  This is all around silliness, really, and it has no distinct purpose but to entertain and possibly make you grin as you roll your eyes at me. It is in answer to a request from my ever faithful wild plot bunny breeder, Grey Wonderer. Every chapter can stand on its own and each is from a different horse's POV. Enjoy.
