The Perfect Workout

Fighting in the arena is so last century. It's pointless self-injury.

Us Orcs need to get with the times. Once you build yourself the perfect body, you go on the stage of a big stadium and receive ovation after ovation. Your body is illuminated by torches and you pose, flex your muscles like this, and like this, and everyone loves you! That's my dream!

I still have a lot of work before I can do something like that, but perseverance is something the great Nezeb taught us. Or was it patience? You don't remember by any chance? Well, it doesn't matter. Anyway, I have a problem with my barbells. I don't use the standard versions - they're way too light. Instead, I figured out a way to use slabs of concrete. The only problem with the slabs is that they crumble pretty quickly.

Here, take this potion. Put it away! It's illegal to possess this stuff. Run to the construction site in northern Izune and bring me two... no, three slabs. The potion will increase your strength so they'll feel as light as a feather! So drink it first, then grab the slabs and come back here.

Don't even think about using the potion for anything else! If I find out that you've abused your powers, you'll feel the wrath of the Izune Orcs!

Oh, thank you! Time to get back to my training. I'll be sure to mention you in my acceptance speech when I win my first contest.
