Bows and Barricades

Part of a ‘choose your own’ story — drabble edition.

Image by the author using MidJourney

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: ‘Five Oaks Village’, by Mojave Green.

“First,” you say, “we need to defend this place. When the orcs arrive, it’ll be carnage. There’s no time to evacuate.”

“But the mines…” begins a villager.

You shake your head. “No chance. They’re coming that way. We need to block the streets — turn this village into a fortress.”

Your friends get to work. Bruno assembles the skilled woodcrafters to make barricades. Dara gathers local archers; by morning, barrels of arrows are on every rooftop.

A warrior called Tox’ar, a lizardman that you recognise from town, approaches. “Let’s scout the mines,” he says. “Some of my friends are out there.”

You decide to…

  1. Stay here in the village (click here).
  2. Go with Tox’ar (click here).
