The cold breeze clings to your skin, piercing to the touch as you run as fast as you can through the forest.
At this point you didn’t care where you ran or where you ended up, but hearing the loud thunderous footsteps slam behind you, a large forest creature racing towards you increasing in speed, you sprinted as your live depended on it
After running for a while, legs now aching with your throat dry and sore, you collapsed on the ground trying to catch your breath.. it was still dark, freezing, you wouldn’t be able to survive out here.. however before loosing consciousness, you feel skinny but warm hands grab under your arms…
-after awaking-
You suddenly woke up to a cold and dark cell, it smelt strongly of metal and raw meat.. quickly backing up to the corner of the hard bed, you scanned your surroundings. Many cells were empty or filled with sleeping creatures of different species, but the one in front of you caught your eye.
A large demon with one big eye stares at you, he has a large metal collar with heavy chains attached, prohibiting him from talking with a large sharp blade through his neck. He seems to be inspecting you, trying to figure out why you were trapped in here with him.. it’s clear he’s been here a while, adorned with scars and bruises, incredibly skinny to the point you could trace his spine along with every rib and bone.. he looked like a breeze could knock him over, and yet, he stayed silent, calm and collected.
Before you could even make out a sentence, he flicks his tail towards you, sliding over a book to your cell.. it’s sign language, a way to communicate, he pauses before signing to you ”NAME?” With a curious tilt.
