This is a great question, DPT! I would say that conflict doesn't always have to be taken in the literal sense. For example: Your protagonist has an orc friend she travels with. a conflict can arise from being in love with the orc while being expected, as the mayor's daughter, to marry some noble instead. Another conflict can arise from the orc being a good friend and now the emperor have decided that all orcs in the kingdom must be executed immediately. Those do not involve arguing but rather something our heroes need to deal with. The possibilities are many :)
