Rose woke up in a large cage. She sat up quickly, her breath coming in short gasps. Her family had huddled up in the center, looking scared and confused. Where were they?
She seized the bars of the cage and rattled them. "Hey, let us out!" she said to a large, hulking figure. It turned around to reveal an ogre, causing Rose to scuttle away from them. -
Yawning and stretching, Alex woke up in his small cot. He had to fetch a few things from the market, but hated the possibility of running into an ogre. "I better take my staff.." the young mage sighed, grasping a skinny half stick propped up next to him "hopefully it doesn't get broken again..."
Standing up, he grabbed a cloak hung on the door and flung it over one shoulder. As he adjusted his cloak, a tall fairy opened the door and slipped inside. she closed the door, making her way across the small room and onto a singular chair in front of a desk -
Rose tried to slow her irregular heartbeat. The ogre grunted and turned away, and she let out a sigh of relief, unaware that she had been holding her breath.
"It's going to be fine as long as we stick together, okay?" Rose said, reassuring her family. "I know we're all scared, and confused, but we have to be ready for anything. Okay?"
They nodded tentatively. -
"Gonna go get f---ed by the ogres again?" the fairy laughed, pointing to the broken staff.
"Haha, very funny" Alex groaned, examining the wood. It was snapped around the halfway mark, missing the top 3 feet & power stone previously installed. "I'm just joking, jeez" the fairy smiled as she grabbed a sack from her belt
"How much?" Alex asks, trying to guess from the girth. "6 silver coins, scrape what ya can" the fairy sighed "Steal if ya gotta, just don't get caught. This is gonna last us for the rest of the month. No pressure or anything."
"Hey f--- you, Trixie. You're a 4 foot tall fairy, try doing something with it" -
Rose was jolted out of her thoughts by a loud grating noise. She turned her head to see what it was and felt her heart sink. A huge gate was slowly sliding open, and they were heading right for it.
They had arrived at the ogre kingdom. -
Alex nodded, flinging the hood on his cloak up. He pocketed the small sack, and headed for the door leading out from his room. The fairy stood up, and began to walk with him "I can't let you go by yourself. We'll stop by my room, then we'll go." The two walked down a narrow hall, doors every so often. Trixie stopped at one and went inside, coming out a minute later with a cloak of her own on
The two left the orphanage, making their way to the market. Immediately Alex noticed the ogres that hang around here, tapping Trixie with his staff. She glanced, and nodded. The two continued on, looking for deals as well as steals -
Rose felt a strange mixture of fear and intrigue as they entered the ogre kingdom. For better or for worse, this is where they'd be staying.
She saw curious eyes peering from all sorts of unlikely places and felt like a zoo animal. The sight of a young ogre startled her. She'd sort of thought that ogres just popped out of the ground, in all their hideous glory, but they had families too. -
"All we could get were some measly vegetables" Alex groaned, holding up a sack with 3 carrots and 5 potatoes "It's getting worse each time, Trix." "You think I don't know that? We gotta steal anything good. But where there's goods, there's ogres and their guards. We must be sneaky" Trixie hushed, lowering the mage's arm and pulling him away slowly
The two crept towards the butcher stand, run by an elf. On the stand were several meats, skins, and even baskets. With no ogres aroumd, the two waited until he had his back turned. When he did, Trixie filled a basket with meat and hid it under her cloak. As the two began to walk away, the elf turned and saw his meats gone. he grabbed Alex by the shoulder, pulling him back and covering his mouth with one hand. He let him go so they were facing one another, and the elf spoke softly "Please. You can take all that meat, and i'll pay you. Notice the ogre guards gone? They recently raided a nearby elf village, capturing most to be enslaved or cooked. There are some family of mine who i happen to know are in the West Gate Castle, i beg of you to save them." -
Rose leaned against the bars of the cage and tried to imagine home. They were in their forest, and the bumping and jostling of the cage was a horse. Yes, she could see it now.
She could almost pet the horse's sleek neck, but her hands touched nothing but air. It was just a daydream, so she curled up next to her family and wished for this whole ordeal to end.
