The Hero And The Princess

My Feet Hit The Floor Looking Down Taloned Claws Dig Into The Dirt? Was I Always Like This? Then a Wave of Tiredness Hits Me Like a House and I Waver on My Feet

You're On a Path In The Woods and At The End Of That Path Is a Cabin And In The Basement Of That Cabin Is a Princess... I'm Sorry Are You Alright?

Tired...

My Entire Nervous System Is Set Ablaze as I'm Shot Out Of My Tiredness

Still Tired?

Shaking My Head I Look Around Where Is The Voice Coming From It must Be My Head Since There Isn't Anything Near Me...

Right... You're Here To Slay Her Or It Will be The End Of The World

The End Of The World? How Would That Be Possible... Walking Forward The Narrator Preaches About The Princess Being Untrustworthy... I Walk Into The Cabin

The Interior Of The Cabin Is Almost Bare The Air Is Stale And Musty and The Floor and Wall are Painted In a Fine Layer Of Dust The Only Furniture Of Note Is a Plain Wooden Table Perched On That Table Is a Pristine Blade

Walking Across The Room The Wave of Tiredness Comes Back As I Pick It Up... Scanning The Blade It's a Long Black Knife With Red Wrapping Around The Handle...

Opening The Door To The Basement The Bird on My Shoulder Comes to Life

Hero: Are We Really Just Going To Slay Her?

I'm Thinking....

Stepping Onto The Stairs

This Is an Oppressive place The Air Feels Heavy and Damp a Hint Of Rot Filtering From The Ancient Wood If The Princess Really Lives Here Slaying Her Is Probably Doing Her a Favor

Taking a Large Step To Make My Presence Known I Hear Her Voice Carry up The Stairs

Who's There?

There's an Edge to Her Voice....

Hero: She Sounds... Dangerous... It Feels Like She's In Charge Down Here....

Don't Let It Fool You It's All Part Of her Manipulation

Quietly Walking Down The Stairs I Take A Step Into The Basement

You Lock Eyes With The Princess There's a Heavy Chain Around Her Wrist Binding Her To The Far Wall Of The Basement

Observing Her... She Eyes Me With Suspicion I Notice a Strange Glint In Her Eyes... She's Planning Something...

So... Here You Are...

I Don't Trust This...

So What... Are You Here To Kill Me...

No......

What?

Dashing Back I Run up The Stairs and Quickly Slam The Door Locking It From Behind The Door I Hear The Princess

That Was a Mistake.... It Won't Be Long Before I Slip These Chains...

Looking Around I Spot The Table Grabbing It I Barricade The Door and Put My Full Weight Against It I Hear Static Zapping From Behind The Door
