The party was tasked with clearing a cave of orcs, after many a room and many an orc, they finally managed to clear the area. Towards the end they were in a large cavern, where they fought 4 orcs and took some heavy damage, during the fight they caused so much noise that they attracted the orc leader and his pet wolf from the room in front of it, and after barely surviving the encounter, they stood victorious. Mild looting ensues, and the dragonborn fighter gets an idea. "Hey, this is a former mine, with plenty of rubble around, can we spend a couple hours and wall off that other area? To make all the other orcs starve to death." They had no clue that all the orcs were dead, and that the other room held nothing but some food and all the collective wealth of this orc tribe.

"Yeah sure, you can wall it off if you want."
