The Sorcerer's Deed

|| chapter two ||

A poor old man walks up to the young girl and reaches his hand out for her to come with him. Gracie, not being able to think in the moment, takes the poor old man's hand and all of a sudden her vision goes black, like it had before when she fell from above the clouds. Soon after, she wakes up in the middle of a room, full with gold and other expensive items that only the richest would have. Whilst limping, the old man walks into the room. He then clicks his fingers and turns into his original self, the sorcerer. Gracie was confused but yet afraid on what had just happened and what he was going to do.

He reaches into his pocket and pulls out an egg and a key. "I am leaving for a trip." He tells Gracie. "You may explore the house and go into any room. But you must keep away from the room at the end of the hall where this key leads. Keep this egg and key on you at all times." Gracie agrees, but as soon as the sorcerer leaves out the door and out for his trip, she looks around the house amazed by how much expensive things he owns.

Just as she exits the last room, she looks at the room that she's not supposed to go in. Her curiosity gets the best of her, and she walks up to the door and pulls out the key from her hoodie pocket, inserting it into the keyhole. She slowly opens the door and walks in. She gasps. She sees a deep red bloody pool, with human flesh scattered around. She freaks out and drops the egg. The egg falls into a puddle of human blood. Gracie picks up the egg and to her surprise it hadn't cracked. She tries and tries to rub the blood off the egg and her hands, scared of what the sorcerer would do as he had told her to keep out of the back room, but the blood seemed to be stained on the egg and her hands.
