Roa, I said that because it's true. They will pick us off one by one and someone coming forth and saying so and so is an ordo(for sure) or worse a gifted will definitely ensure that person's death. And yes the orcs will pick us off one by one regardless, but I think that someone saying someone is an ordo will just help the orcs a little too much for my liking.
That being said, I agree that we should just drop this for the time being and concentrate on finding us some Orcsies.
The second quote was not mine, sorry.
