Darkest Mineshaft

4 of 💯- 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: ‘Orcs and Close Combat’ or ‘Friendly Faces’, both by JF Danskin.

You follow the footsteps towards the mineshaft, your senses on high alert. As you approach the entrance, you can hear faint noises coming from within. You take a deep breath and step inside, your hand tightly gripping your sword.

The mineshaft is pretty dark, and you can barely see a few feet ahead of you. You light a torch and move forward, trying to make as little noise as possible. As you walk, the noises grow louder, and you realize that they’re the sounds of orcs shouting and laughing.

You move stealthily, avoiding the occasional creaky board or loose stone.

You decide to:

2. Try to find a more stealthy approach (click here).
