4d20

4d20

A chance to do the right thing
Stands before him, not higher than his waist
Tell the foolish boy
Tell him that his post was foolish
That this whole idea is foolish

Before thought can become words
The boy is joined by a woman
She has one eye
And more broken teeth
Than whole

Despite this, she has life in her
She can't be much older than the boy
Perhaps the older sister stands before him?
Was it her post?
Did her father do the damage to her?

"The boy asked you a question," she hisses.
The hiss created more by her teeth
Than by a malicious spirit
"Do you track better than you answer?" she eyed him up,
"Or are you a bum looking for a handout," and she eye him down.

His story continues...
