    Myna had nearly tumbled to the ground as Taugdorm gently nudged her, the sheer difference in their size enough to almost entirely throw her over. "Ey!" She called to him as she righted herself. A second later she aimed a punch at his arm, though only half as hard as she actually could. Her...

    Myna nodded. "Lets." A part of her still doubted that they would be completely out from under the rug, but hoping wasn't something she was completely done with yet. A small part of her still wanted to see the better side of life, keep to the shred of optimism she had left inside of her. Even...

    Myna smiled a genuine smile as Taug complemented her spotting of the symbol, her eyes lighting up slightly. It was rare that she received praise of any sort, rare that anyone down here did. Tauv and Mama Maz always made sure to let her know she was appreciated, and the words sent a jolt of joy...

    Myna caught the scroll with a swift motion, quickly clutching it to make sure it didn't fall into the muck. She glanced at it with a frown, looking at the odd symbols and slowly shaking her head in confusion. "These don't look like what Mama Maz taught me." The girl said with a deep frown...

    Myna let out a quiet chuckle. Taug wasn't kidding, Mama Maz would hit him with the new stew pot, but not hard. She'd always told both of them not to get involved in...well pretty much everything that they were actually involved in. "Alright." She said with a gentle dip of her head. That...

    It made sense. It wasn't like the Underboss was going to need anything on him now. In fact, if they left him here scavs would probably pick over his corpse anyway. By morning there would be nothing left of him but a few bones and whatever meat wasn't edible. She took half a step towards the...

    Private Tales Biting Back Bile

    Myna felt herself gently dropped by the hands of her best friend. Eyes squeezed shut for a brief moment, and she drew in a long ragged breath as she tried to gain a bit more control. Fingers clutched into tight fists, and then slowly she righted herself. Her chest rose and fell, her eyes...

    The knife slipped from flesh one last time as Taug wrapped his arms around her slight frame and pulled Myna away. A startled cry escaped her throat, and her head half whirled around to see her companion clutching at her tightly. A startled whimper pulled from her lips, but she quieted herself...

    Myna had no dignity left. Almost as soon as the man threw her off, she jumped back on. There was nothing left of the bluffing joyous girl. All she could manage to summon was a vicious bestial thing that fought for the survival of her and her closest friend. The blade she clutched in her...

    Myna was enraptured, enraged. She hardly even noticed as the mountain she'd been scaling was toppled onto his side. Didn't even see Taug practically lifting the hulk of a man into the air. Her whole focus was on what was in front of her, the knife in her hand. All she could see was the blood...

    Myna had never been much of a fighter. Down here in the pits she was the smallest of the small for her age. She had always been slight, tiny, and in the face of this ogre they might as well have been facing a giant. Terror gripped her, even as she pushed herself back up from the wall. Her eyes...

    Myna felt the smack of the ogre's hand against the side of her body. A loud crunch echoed out as she felt one of her ribs bend and then suddenly crack. A gasp of pain lurched from her lips, and before she could take a breath the girl found herself thrown against the sidewall of the alleyway...

    Myna's fingers wrapped around the hilt of her knife. She could feel her heart pounding within her chest, thundering in her ears. It felt as though it were trying to spring from her chest, end her life before the man in front of them could. A desperation clung to her. She wanted...needed this to...

    Private Tales Biting Back Bile

    Bravado and confidence were something that Myna had learned to fake long ago. When one came from a background like hers it was difficult not to, especially when she lacked for the real thing. A smile flickered on her lips, though it was as forced as could be. The man towered over the both of...

    "What?" She turned to Taug. "Why would I do the talking? You're the older one." Myna looked utterly incredulous. "I'm the face, not the voice. You're much more intimidating than me." What she said was...technically the truth. Taug stood easily a foot taller than she did, and he was much more...
