You don't know why, but when the captain offers his hand to you, your heart beats furiously, and you can't help but take his hand. He helps you to your feet, and the five of you make your way to the elf kingdom. You can't say you're not nervous, as you've been told since birth that elves hate orcs, and now being among them is quite frightening. The possibility that someone might recognize you as an orc is the scariest thought though. If that happens, you are sure to be put to death.

"You know," the captain says, "I've been meaning to ask you, why is your skin a slight shade of green? I mean, you look like any other dark elf, but there's a slight green to your skin. Are you okay?"

You nod, and quickly come up with an excuse. "Y-yes, I'm fine. I-it's a birth defect."

"I see." he says. You can't tell if he believes you or not, but you hope he does. "Anyway, we have to do something about your name."

"You want to change it?" you ask.

"We have to, it's the law. Hm... how about... Ronama?"

All elvish names have some underlying meaning about the person, so you ask, "What's it mean?"

"Rose petal. Since your hair is so red, and you have a slight green to your skin, you remind me of a rose."

This makes you blush uncontrollably, "I... I love it." you whisper.

"Great. So, you're Ronama now."

You can't help but smile at hearing your new name, and feel a sense of pride about actually having one now. But there's also something else. Something you feel when you talk to the captain. It then hits you, could you be falling for the good captain? Even though you used to be man, and an orc at that, you feel a connection to the captain, and start wondering what his name is.

• Ask the captain what his name is
• Push these feelings aside, and remain quiet
