I stirred to my wall-shaking as a small dike hit me in the head. I yawn and sat up, it was a nice time to wake up. The hearthstone added a friendly luminosity to my room as I stood up and popped my stone-y back. "Argh, god last night was crazy... " then abruptly it felt as if something shot through my heart, "Draal...". Last night flickered through my head as so my parents' death did every night. I leaped down to land into the troll market and ran to the doorway, I drew out my horngozel, drew a door, walked out, and drew a breath of fresh air. It was twilight and the moon provided a dim light as I started to run through the brush looking for the troll hunters grotto. I spotted a few pairs of horns  above a wooden barrier 'Bingo.' I ran and jumped the wooden barrier. There was Draal, standing in the small yard with an untroubled expression on his face. I reached up slightly and tapped his shoulder while I stood in his blind spot. "Who's there?!" he called his voice echoing in my ears as I giggled, "Ah, You don't recognize a childhood friend?" I said stepping from behind him. He smiled as his anger swept away, "Erin!" he embraced me while a profound chortle escaped his throat "That's my name, don't make it weird! How's it bein training the flesh bag big blue?" I said as he let me go, "Not as dreadful now that you're here Lil' green". I went wide-eyed and blushed "Gon' soft aye?" I stated as I climbed up his back and sat on his head pretending his horns were handles. He grasped me by my hips and maintained me in-front of his eyes "Still just kid still aye?" he chuckled as he started to tickle me. I shrieked shrilly "N-Nooo!! S-Stop!!!" I laughed as he began to tickle me faster "How about, No!" "I will kick you in the Gronk-nuts! aha!". He twirled us in a circle and then slumped onto the grass including me in his forearms. I yearned for this big blue softie.
