Hello, Everyone!
After our last episode ended the corresponding chapter, I’m happy to present to you another one of our DM's Interludes. He sends them to us inbetween game sessions, to show us that there’s a lot happening in the world outside of what our heroes are doing.
This one was so satisfying… and scary at the same time! :)
Have fun reading!
The orphanage had been abandoned. There was no trace of the promised dragon, nor of the little orphans. Nurvureem felt her anger rise, along with a wave of acid in her mouth.
Someone had warned them! There was no other explanation.
Slowly, methodically, she went from room to room in search of at least one forgotten child. The heels of her boots echoed in the mockingly empty rooms. Kalien walked behind her without making a sound. She could smell his fear, and that, at least, gave her some pleasure. Alas, there were no children to be found. In one of the rooms, however, she caught a familiar scent.
Those three!
They had taken her toy, again! That was the third time, the last time! She had given them enough opportunities.
It was about time they died.
So, how about that? By warning Dynatos Perres, Mary and her friends managed to save Rabajorhax and his orphans’ lives! I’m really happy because they were really important to Mary!
Oh, yeah. If you don’t remember who Rabajorhax is, here’s where we first met him.
See you next time, for the next chapter of our story!
Take care and be well!

An important disclaimer: Mary Windfiddle's story is my notes from a D&D game turned into a narrative. All the worldbuilding and NPC encounters belong to our DM, and all the actions of the other main characters (Aurum, Bruno and Agatha) belong to my co-players. My contribution to the story is only everything Mary-related (actions, reactions, inner thoughts), as well as the writing itself.
