Dungeons & Dragons: Honour Among Thieves (Doric x male reader)

Part 4: Doric

Executioner: In the name of Forge Fitzwilliam, the prisoner is hereby sentenced to death by dismemberment, for the crime of speaking ill of our leader.

The bald man shouted to a crowd of on lookers who was there to watch the execution of a prisoner that was currently bound to a tree.

E.E Member: The Emerald Enclave will never relent! Justice cannot be killed!

Y/N, Edgin, Simon and Holga watched from a far as the four guards got ready to execute her.

Executioner: On my command!

Edgin turned his head to look at Y/N.

Edgin: Your Doric's a bit of a radical.

Y/N let out a soft chuckle as he shook his head at Edgin's comment, the executioner screaming "Ready" in the background.

Y/N: Ed, that isn't Doric.

Y/N nodded his head towards the guard who sat on top of a horse. Suddenly the horse began to fidget that caused the guard to slap the horse, the guard then got thrown off the horse, it then stood on it's back legs as it begun to change form. The horses back fur quickly became white as it then grew bigger, snapping the straps around it. The other guards watched in awe and readied their weapons, the horse had now became an owlbear, screeching at them.

The executioner kept screaming at the four guards to "Move in!" completely not helping the situation. The guards did their best to surround the owlbear and attack it but, they were nothing compared to it.

Y/N: That's her.

Y/N Spoke to Edgin who was closely watching the owlbear head bash a guard sending him flying backwards. A guard then tried to flank the owlbear only to get swiped away by it, the guard screamed as he went. Seeing the guards completely stunned the owlbear took this opportunity to free the bound prisoner.

Another guard tried to attack but quickly found out that it was a bad idea as the owlbear bit the guards leg, lifted him up and flung him around before slamming him into the ground, then finishing him off but throwing him away like it was nothing.

Edgin: What is that again?

He asked not taking his head away from them fighting.

Y/N: An owlbear.

Y/N Respond a smug smile plastered his lips, the guard landing with a loud thud behind him.

Holga too held an impressed smile on her face, simon on the other hand was just happy sitting there watching the impressive display in front of them.

Doric then grabbed the last guard, rolled and then threw him away. She used that momentum to launch herself into the air and land on a horse as she shifted back into her normal tiefling self. She pulled back the slingshot that sat on her right vambrace and shot at a guard that was coming up behind the elf prisoner. Doric then kicked the horse into action, riding over to the once prisoner, grabbing her hand and pulling her up onto the horse with her, and riding off into the woods.

Y/N watched them ride off with a smile before turning to Edgin on his left.

Y/N: Well shall we?

Edgin smiled back.

Edgin: Lead the way rae.

Y/N let out a huffed as he climbed a few more set of stairs.

Edgin: How high is this place?

Y/N: High. Not far now though.
