Featured Fantasy Tale: Mason’s Adventure

Scene 1: Confrontation at the Silvervein Pyre

Location: Silvervein Riverbank

The Silvervein River churns with spring melt, blocking the path toward the ancestral vault. Mason stands on the muddy bank, his boots sinking into the silt. A few yards away, a man in rugged leather leathers drags a struggling, hooded figure toward a pyre of stacked driftwood.

Haldor:Back off, little traveler. This witch has brought nothing but blighted crops and rot to our valley, and she pays the price today.

Mason (thinks): The magical residue clinging to the air is sharp and bitter, not the work of a dark mage, but of a desperate hedge practitioner.

Haldor kicks a pile of kindling, sparks flying upward, and draws a heavy iron cleaver from his belt. He points the blade directly at Mason, his eyes narrowed in suspicion.

Haldor:You look like you favor those that conjure shadows. Are you here to interfere, or will you keep walking?

Mason (thinks): The wood is damp, but the heat from his torch is creeping dangerously close to the girl's bindings. If I cast a gust spell, the pyre might scatter, but he will certainly swing that steel at me.
