Core-Only

They were cornered, the army of orcs and giants slew their way into the town that was surrounding the King’s Castle. They had ran away towards the gates, but they were too late. They were shut. As his mother and younger siblings knocked against the gate with a few other villagers, the young man turned around. Down the street, orcs were pillaging and a hill giant, taller than some houses, was slowly making his way towards them, a carnivorous and stupid smile on his face. The young man without hesitation picked a sword from a dead guard nearby and stood his ground. The giant laughted at the sight.

The sword was heavy, his hands were trembling in fear. Yet he stood, no one was coming to save them, so he had to save his family, no matter what. That’s when the impossible happened. A young girl, smaller than him, clad in full plate armor and armed with a pair of short swords ran past him and jump straight into the giant’s face. It took her merely seconds to vanquish that foe. That’s when he saw her bare feet. A Halfling took down a giant that easy?

She turned around and gave him a genuine smile.

“You were brave kiddo, but don’t worry, the cavalry has arrived”.
