"Nuir!" she cried out.
Turning, she found him thrown down in the sand. He was hacking away at the knife-ended tail. Aurra had been so pleased to see a friendly face, but even then she had known it could lead to pain. She had seen too many friends die over the years.
The creature thrashed. As...
Aurra slipped onto the bench where Nuir had originally indicated. She smiled at him; he had mentioned a gift. It was also amusing to see Nuir tipsy.
However, she had something to do first.
Aurra set a heavy bag of coin on the table. There for just a moment with its weight before she put a...
"It is good to see you too!" Aurra declared.
She could see from his movements that he had been drinking. The rogue glanced down at her mug and took a swig. She supposed she might need to catch up a little, but swilling cheap wine from a wooden mug hurt some part of her.
"Why don't I stay on...
Aurra tilted her head sharply to one side. Her neck cracked.
"Yeah, let's get it done."
The gate fell sharply. The crowd cheered. Then followed murmurs of confusion. Regular visitors: pirates, merchants and criminals were accustomed to the prisoners being shoved out by the ogre guards...
Aurra was quite surprised to hear a familiar voice.
She was far less surprised to see that Nuir was on a losing streak. Elbion was a welcoming city but it would still be a bad idea for an elf to kick up trouble at an inn.
He was young and sweet and slightly naive. They would take advantage...
"You're sweet," Aurra said. She turned to look at the shorter elf. She offered a sad smile and a shrug.
"I'm sorry we might be about to die."
Gallows humour was nothing new for Aurra, but she usually felt in more control of her destiny.
Aurra took one of the daggers. It had a wicked...
PART 3
It brought her just a little relief to have a familiar face. Logically, she knew that it meant an aquiaintance had been doomed to an early death in this place. She felt that way regardless.
Aurra watched as one of the newcomers despatched several ogres. He addressed Nuir, so she decided...
"Nuir!"
For a fleeting moment, she smiled. It was nice to see a familiar face, but then came the realisation that someone she liked would be suffering the same fate as her.
She glanced through the bars. A new arrival was almost a break in the monotony. She hated herself a little for that...
Nuir
Location: Slave cells
There was nothing to herald their arrival. No sound or flash of light. A small group appeared in the middle of the corridor in an instant.
"Hey!" cried one of the guards.
Aurra had been listening to the ogres that guarded the cells. They had been finding all the...
"Alright so we have a healer. I suppose the lack of experience doesn't really matter if you keep us alive."
"Then we have a huge man for protection."
"Aand then we have a drunk who can speak lots of languages."
"I don't suppose anyone knows a remarkably powerful and suicidal mage?" she...
"Yeah I've had..."
Aurra was interrupted by the sound of her rapier sliding from the leg of the table to fall against the floor.
She bent down and grabbed the blade, setting it on the table in its scabard.
"Not making a point. Where are you supposed to put these things when you're sitting...
"I am indeed!" she replied.
Aurra glanced down in disdain at the wooden mug of beer that had been poured. She was certain that it would either taste appalling or taste of nothing at all.
Aurra crinkled up her nose as she took a swig and sat down at the table. It turned out to be the former...
You are here because you responded to a notice posted across the region.
Not that many people can even read, but perhaps you heard it from a town crier.

Aurra adjusted her rapier. To sit comfortably she had leaned it...
Aura wasn't burdened by too much knowledge. She tucked the names away, but didn't understand what was happening. However, it was clear they were linked to the monsters roaming through the darkness. Her mother was careful to ensure that her daughters who were placed out into the line of danger...
