A hidden cave on a rocky cliff — AI image using Lexica

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: ‘One Lie to Live’, by J.C. Lovero.

You steal one last glance at Alaric’s lifeless body and tuck the athame into your belt. Walking a few steps ahead of the mage out of the cave, you consider your options.

Kill the mage in his sleep…

Contact Dara…

Make a run for it…

You attempt to commit to a course of action, but you lose your footing and slide down a steep bank. The wind whips your face as you crash into a hollow in the forest.

“Idiot!” Lorenzo yells.

It’s now or never.

You dash into the forest, the heat under your skin prickling with every step.
