This hulk of a man sits at a corner table in McGinty's with a wide swath of space around him as he talks to what looks like a pair of human skulls. Drinking his beer, he can be heard speaking in a language none other can understand.
"Urk gro'tak me'kru dun far'tun kerot egros meka dus ne'cro gorna meik neshk lugat elok javek harben jom'eck jengut krakra."
(So that's where we found you, Nik, in a cave with all sorts of paintings. Never did understand why people made things like that, they just look ugly in the end of days, haha!)
The man laughs mightily as he drinks more beer; the patrons move just a little further away.

Murk sat with his skulls, speaking softly to them in giant. (I'm just going to write it plainly, lol)
"So we went back down to where we found you, and as we explored, we came across a giant rock that was glowing. Looked like a much larger version of the ogre tribal stones in the chiefs homes. It reminded me so much of home that I unusually gave it a big hug, but then a piece came off, and it just felt right to put it in my mouth. The most miraculous thing happened. All my wounds were completely healed. I'm not sure if the tribal stone will work again for me, but I might like to try again later down the road. Also, we ran into a devil beast, I think the humans called it a manticore, but I had never seen one. It launched spikes out of its tail. They were deadly, but we killed the beast and happily made it back here. Now, after my red friend sorts out what we brought back this time, I might make a small hut or house just outside of town. That would be nice."

Murk came back to the farm walking heavily from his wounds and smiling, knowing the vast majority of the threat to the farm had been destroyed. As he approached, he looked for the owners and Tamli to show them the goblins were gone. He reached the barn and stowed the horse and gear in the space they let him use. He was very happy as he fell on his face and slept, the last fight and how they had killed the demon together replaying in his mind.
The demon came through the portal as Murk destroyed the altar. The others shouting in dismay as murk swung right away. The demon beating him down and the new gray robe friend helping murk to get up just in time to destroy the thing he had brought here. It had felt right that his be the final blow. After all, it was his fault it was there.
Murk slept with a small smile on his face.
