Genres: Fiction
The tall grass slapped his thighs, and bugs constantly buzzed in his ears, but at least insects wouldn’t imprison him.
There were still several hours left in the day when he reached a slender stream he had to cross. Alric stopped walking. He was exhausted, and the thought of trying to sleep in wet clothes set him ill at ease. He’d cross in the morning so he had the while day to dry off.
He unrolled the thick blanket he’d purchased with the coin Beatrice had given him and collapsed, staring at t
...he distant army. After leaving Beatrice’s cabin, he’d traveled west for several days until he found the main road north out of Scatterbrook. Not long after, he’d spotted campfires. He’d kept ahead of them for a while, but day after day of checking the distances and avoiding scout patrols had worn on him. As he leaned back and closed his eyes, he decided it best to let them pass. He could always travel to Mordeina in their shadow.
The sound of footsteps through the grass awoke Alric from his nap.
