Your character has just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As they look around, their gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. They duck and step into a tattered tent, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the tent, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town? She begins, then pauses to study your face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a cushion, “Tell me your story.”

((How do you respond?))


"Well my memorys a little foggy but I remember flames lots of flames and screaming I couldn't breath to much smoke AHHH!" Max's head rings and he gets a flashback of his little sister Elizabeth and him playing then it flashes to when a big green orc was grabbing Elizabeth and his mother then he remembers getting hit by and orc and flying into a tree because he shot the orc and ran to his sister. "Are you okay the lady?" asks "I'm fine" Max says and keeps talking. "I was running and running to get away I recall seeing huge orcs with swords slashing at my people and they were burning my village. As I was running I tripped thump. I was scared then dizzy as my eyes were closed I remember feeling warm arms picking me up and making feeling safe then hearing the things that saved me yell go go go. They snapped what sounded like a whip then I heard hooves galloping I dosed off after I heard silence no arrows whistling through the air or the crashing of boulders in the soil. I woke up on a wooden floor with a white quilt on top of me I looked around and realized I was in a carriage I walked up to the front and peaked a look at the thing that was driving me it was a human man. Why would a human help me right? I tapped on his shoulder to ask that question and then I realized that was a bad idea I spooked him and he jumped making the reins to the horse snap up the horse reared up and the carriage detached from the horse! The man turned his horse and galloped toward me but the carriage was to fast so I lost him. I was freaking out I held on to the sides of the carriage and waited for it to stop. When it did stop it tipped and I flew out. I stood up and looked around. This is when I arrived here I walked accsidently bumping into a couple people they were all getting angry at me so I ran into this tent and that's how I meant you ma.. ma ma'am and now I'm here informing you about this story." Max smiled a bit feeling reasured that he could tell all this stress to someone. Then after telling that story Max got up and got ready to leave and go on his journey to hopefully find more elves and one day save his sister and mother from the orcs that he disliked but every time max thought of how he disliked the orcs because of what they did to his family he remembered that before his Pa passed away he told Max that everyone is different so that Max would know even if someone does something bad from that race it doesn't mean the entire race is bad. Max always remembers this as an important memory and it helps him calm down and remember peace is right.
