DRABBLE STORY ARC #2: SEEK AND AVENGE

There’s a Light!

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

This is a continuation of The Burned Village, a ‘choose your own’ fiction story, “drabble edition,” initially created by JF Danskin. Head back to the previous installment, ‘The Left Tunnel’ by Andrew Crocker, or find out how to contribute by clicking here.

With your torch gone, the darkness threatens to swallow you up into a shroud of despair. The walls taunt you, closing in and releasing their suffocating grip — a cruel dance of torment.

Every sound echoes. Your breath becomes an unnerving companion. You can’t shake the feeling that something sinister lurks beyond your grasp.

But you press on.

The minutes feel like hours, and the tunnel seems never-ending. Your hands scrape against rough stones as your fingers tremble with exhaustion and anxiety.

When the darkness threatens to swallow you whole, a faint glimmer of light appears ahead.

Hope rekindles.
