Reply to comment by Bealf in [WP] Contrary to stereotypes, orcs are well educated, unscrupulously honest, and highly intelligent. Their society values strength as the final arbiter of justice over rationality. Thus they want absolutely nothing to do with a defeated female knight. by Genevieve_Griselda

I give myself an hr with a prompt and then bounce to something new or back to work on my own work/actually employment.

The commenter below pretty much got it. In my mind's eye the Faith has indoctrinated our protag into not seeing herself for who she is, with the High Priest using a glammer to alter her perception. If I decided to work on this piece I'd add clarity, but this and other stuff I post are sprints to get ready for Nanowrimo on another project.

And here I was thinking that the Orcs worshipped the same god as the knight did, and so it upended her worldview to learn that their "bloodthirsty goddess" was literally her own god.

It's also that as well. You see, like other Green-skinned creatures that start with O, it has layers.
