They free slaves and prisoners, seek the support of rebels and bandits, and sabotage labour camps and prisons alike. Allies are helped to reach camps in defensible locations, shown hidden paths, and the like. The army avoids pitched battles, and focuses on gaining allies among subject populations, some of whom join the army as fresh recruits.</box>		The army uses their mastery of wilderness survival to outmanoeuvre enemy advances, and make contact with local forces that share their enemies.

Unlike the connection with Sjofn, forged from her axe of [[worth]], there is no link to be drawn on. Those who already had a connection to one of their barbarian ancestors are able to focus on it. and strengthen it a little, but they must still deal with the chorus of dead slaves that threaten to drown them out.

	Defiance has no strong connection to the orcs who came after the time of [[Thrace]]. There are a handful of exceptions - some orcs report hearing the voices of dead companions who had participated in the various pilgrimages ~~lead~~ by the skull since its discovery.

	<quote>Kellek nodded, but he was not really listening. The Freeborn woman opposite him poured some of the Imperial Roseweald out onto the wooden table between them, prattling about the fine quality of herbs straight from the Spice Garens of Feroz. Her eyes roved over his face as she tried to judge his mood. He was breathing slowly and rhythmically, in through his nose and out through his mouth, and she was trying to work out what that meant.		<quote>Kellek nodded, but he was not really listening.

	While the majority of voices heard strongly during the harrowing three months are those of the orcs who spent four hundred years and more as slaves of the Empire, they are not the only ones. The enchantment woven with the aid of ''Defiance'' has at least partially made it easier to hear some of the oldest ancestors, those from before the time their descendants were enslaved.

	These voices, too, are angry. Among the orcs of the Winter Sun most of the voices who can be recognised seem to be from the [[Thule]] or [[Jotun]] ~~tribes~~. They alternately rage and are disappointed with their descendants; they have no identity of their own and they are servants of humans who are not "worthy" of that service.
