Image by the author using MidJourney

This is a ‘choose your own’ fiction story, “drabble edition”. Each main part of the story (not including choices and blurb) should be a 100-word drabble. Find out how to contribute to the ongoing story here, or check the previous chapter by Mojave Green here. You can also go back to Chapter 1 of this story: The Burned Village.

You sit up, feeling your wound. The poison seems to have fully cleared under Bruno’s care.

“Seems to me that we need to attack the orcs without delay!” you cry. “If we know where they are, then let’s wipe them out! The villagers can thank us later.”

“It’s a risky strategy,” says Dara. “If we win, fine. But if we lose, or a lot of orcs escape, the villagers would be in danger.”

You stand, feeling determined. “Lead me to the orcs, Bruno. And lend me a bow.”

“If you’re absolutely sure,” he says, “I got plenty of weapons here.”

And then you…

  1. Stick to your guns — you want to attack the orcs (click here).
  2. Go to warn the people of Five Oaks Village instead (click here).
