The elf-orc dynamic is a good idea, I would have liked to see more contrast and tension between the two though. They just seemed to politely get along.

Originally there were more refences to their differences but had to cut it.

Same with the dialogue.

I wanted to run them as a buddy cop duo. I could see them being a fun pair, Grog the funny guy to Ellowin's straight man, like a lethal weapon duo. I can see Ellowin saying "I'm too old for this." I planned out some dialogue but sadly I had to cut almost all of it out! The 1k word limit is tough, but it's what makes the game fun. The last line of dialogue was the only piece of witty conversation I got to include but at least it's something.

Dang. It sounds like the word limit was a challenge. I think it might've been worth sacrificing some of the setup exposition for more characterization and/or dialogue. Maybe next time! 

I did consider dropping the beginning part, but I felt like without that the twist ending seemed too out of left field. And I kind of wanted to finish on a twist so I decided to keep it in.
