My predecessor set himself an ultimate quest for awaking the humanity. To achieve it he created orcs in a hope that a brutal, raging enemy would unite the human race and teach them how to be better. That was a gruesome mistake. Humanity does not tend to be better. They tend to be the best. In every single aspect. They saw the brutality of orcs and it just encouraged them to be become even more brutal than the greenskins. The rich and powerful were supposed to share with the poor and thus begin the golden age of humanity without injustice, poverty and hate. But instead they forced them to work for them, fight for them and most important of all - die for them.
This madness must be stopped. I just took over but I am capable of ending the conflict. I could just erase the orcs but that would be against everything I believe. They are sentient beings after all. No, I just need to... refocus both nations so that they won't have any reasons to fight each other. All I need is to grand both of them an adequate enemy. My predecessor didn't realize that orcs actually shouldn't have any interest in invading the human lands. Orcs live in wilderness, they don't need fertile soils, thriving cities, beautiful gardens. They are savages they just need a good fighting. Why shouldn't I provide them a challenging enemy right where they live, in the wilderness?
As for the humanity... they will need something more sophisticated than a bunch of berserkers. The enemy should be terrifying, devilishly intelligent but without the intention to completely destroy the humanity. No, the enemy will tend to exploit not annihilate! And most important of all they will be masters of disguise. Otherwise they will just encourage the humanity to become even worse.
That's it! I will plant one enemy for humans just inside their thriving cities and the other will challenge the dominance of the orcs in the wilderness. However, both enemies will be limited in numbers. Quality over quantity! It will be very difficult to kill them but on the other hand they will not wreak havoc! They will just keep both humanity and orcs occupied so that they will not see a point in fighting each other. This will end this pointless war!
I can beginning the creation of... wait a minute! How should I name those two races? Let me check the log... my predecessor was giving names for his creations with an alphabetical order, I think I will stick to it. Let me see... here it is, the list of a few last creations:
- orcs
- polish kielbasa (I think, I'm hungry)
- quantum entanglement (a great invention, too bad that no mortal acknowledge its presence so far)
- roasting of coffee beans (and thus my predecessor finally managed to complete his ultimate quest for awaking the humanity)
- schooner glass (now I'm also thirsty)
- tax (and after that my predecessor should be fired immediately but nooo, the management said: "let's give this guy one last chance". Needless to say his next invention was the worst disaster ever)
- UHT milk! (they drowned him in that as a punishment)
That leaves me with "V" and "W". Let me think...
...and thus the age of vampires and werewolves began...
