An Orc in the forest
Posted: Tue Apr 27, 2004 2:55 am
Fooser walks deeper into the southern forest, he see's a light made from a fire in between the thick tree's. He makes his way through the leaves and branches to a clearing. In the clearing there are two very small, poorly constructed tents, and a campfire in the middle. Two cloaked men sit at the fire, not noticing his approach. Fooser's attention turns to a bundle near some bushes. "How long has it been?" The men turn around startled at the noise, then calm down seeing who it is. "How long for what?" "...The orc." "Oh.." The two men slowly turn to the orc who is tied up in the corner, sleeping. "Longer than you were in--...." "Longer?" He looks down at the orc with an odd glance. "Release her." The two men at the fire look suprised and a bit angered. Fooser begins walking past the clearing and back into the forest, one of the men gets up and yells out, "What about the orcs? What about the ransom?!" Fooser turns around to the man, but can't find a decent enough excuse to give them, so he turns and keeps walking, leaving the confused men behind him.
The next day two cloaked figures come out of the forest in broad daylight carrying the orc, who is silent, with a blind over her eyes. They make their way to the southern gate of town. "She will be easy to find here." They drop her hard onto the stone road outside the southern town gate, she hits the ground, but dosen't make a sound. The two men then leave quickly, leaving the orc to be found. No note or sign is left with the orc.
