Lorik the Defender (The Lorik Trilogy)
“She turned, shocked at the utter darkness of the hallway and put her hand on the rough wooden door.“Lorik!” she screamed.She beat on the wood, searching desperately for a lever or knob that might open the door, but there was nothing. She threw her shoulder into the heavy wood, but it didn’t budge. A wave of pain ran up her neck and down her arm. She was wrapped in the sheet the crone had put on her, but she had no shoes. She tried kicking the door anyway, but only succeeded in hurting her heel....“No!” she cried. “Lorik, don’t leave me.”She knew her only hope was to find help.

Her slow pace became even slower as she slowly climbed the stairs.MoreLess
