Orcish Code of Honour??
The general impression one gets of Orcs is that they are selfish, scheming, crude, and completely expendable in battle. A minor orcish argument could result in death. Why then would they 'have been known to travel far to pursue and enemy, especially if they have a fallen captain to avenge.' Was this some kind of code of honour, found among the more noble breeds of goblin? But orcs aren't noble. I would hardly imagine that they would bother avenging a fallen captain; just sling the body to one side and replace him.
