Drabble STORY ARC #2: Seek and Avenge

Scrambling up the Steep Rocks

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

This is a ‘choose your own’ fiction story, “drabble edition”. Head back to the previous instalment: ‘Adventuring to the Peak’ by JF Danskin. Or go back to Chapter 1: “The Burned Village.” Find out how to contribute to the ongoing story here.

Naya summons glowing magical shields. She and Tox’ar hang back, cautious.

You, however, dash forward and scramble further up the rocks, caring not for arrows.

The orcs begin to fire at you exclusively — but you are fast. You leap across to a side cave where two archers are stationed, and with a flying kick, send one of them screaming down to the rocks below. The other soon feels your sword blade.

Tox’ar is now shooting accurately at the other orcs.

You see that from this cave, a rope ladder leads to the top of the cliff… you start to climb.
