Steading of the Hill Giants

The hill giants have a steading upon a hill, a great hall of timber, and birds of prey circle over it. It is not well guarded. The giants are known for their feasting, and their sentries are oftener asleep than not, one of them with the tankard still in his hand.

Nosnra is their chieftain, and he sits roaring with laughter in the Great Hall with his wife beside him and a bear beneath his table. It is told that a giant met in the corridors, deep in his mead, will sometimes stop and say, 'Hey... wait a second... you aren't a giant...'. Under the hall lie the orcs who serve them, half dead from thirst; but some of the orcs have risen against their masters, and those hold the caves beyond.
