DRABBLE STORY ARC #2: SEEK AND AVENGE
Bound By Blood
Part of a ‘choose your own’ story — drabble edition.

This is a ‘choose your own’ fiction story, “drabble edition”. You can check out Chapter 1 of this story: The Burned Village. Find out how to contribute to the ongoing story here, or check the previous chapter: ‘Servant of the Dark Arts’ or ‘The Blood Mage Beckons’ by Mojave Green.
As if reacting to your wayward thoughts, a burning sensation courses through your veins, igniting like fire. You resolve to follow Lorenzo into the cave. Had the old man not acted, you’d be dead.
How bad could one month be?
A vibrant crimson-red cloth covers the sacred altar in the center of the chamber. An ornate, jewel-encrusted dagger rests on top beside various herbs, vials, and what appears to be torture devices. You glimpse a man shackled to the wall.
“Interrogate the prisoner.” Lorenzo waves his hand and a shimmering barrier forms between you. “Fail, and die.”
What do you do?
This story is a collaborative effort. Special thanks to Mojave Green for writing the chapters leading to the cave!
