Trapping Her

Two tribes were living in harmony. They followed the same traditions, ways, everything, until one day, one tribe grew greedy. The invasion began, and the weaker tribe became slaves to the invaders. Prisoners were taken in on an annual basis. The king of the invaders became a royalty that no commoner had the authority to reach.

Jasmine was a depressed girl. Imprisoned in her town, she yearned for freedom. Every year, she would watch her townfolks be taken as prisoners by the orders of a king that never showed his face. She would listen in despair...until one day she caught the eye of her tyrant king.

King Zarin was lonely and terrifying. With years of emotions escaping his soul, his heart eyed the world with contempt and anger. There was just so much repressed anger, void-ness that needed to be expelled; heard.
