Alexis in Darkness

Letter to Imperial Jailers:

To who it may concern,
Alexis D'elificent is hereby exiled from High Rock for the atrocious crime of murder, A certain noble by the name of Heniel Masolaude was found dead in his home by means arcane. Although the villain who did this has had no formal arcane training the magic signature left behind is undoubtedly hers, as such the guilty are charged with murder and are to be sentenced to life in the Imperial Prison.
Yours sincerely,
Louisie Bienne


Letter to High Rock:

Sir Bienne,
I have grave news, the prisoner Alexis D'elificent (guilty of murder) has somehow escaped our custody while under escort to the Imperial Prison, a full investigation is currently under way as we believe she escaped in the Colovian Highlands, the guards can remember nothing of what transpired only that they blacked out and that when they awoke she had gone. undoubtedly she had used some kind of magic we weren't aware of, rest assured that we will track down and execute the vile sorceress.
Yours sincerely,
Albecius Catraso - Imperial Jailor



"Wake up, dear child" The voice crooned, "For you are safe now, ahahaha" Alexis opened her eyes dreamily and stared right into a log fire, temporarily blinded she tried to remember where she was, She had been thrown into the back of carriage and then - darkness. Where was she? this place did not seem like a prison it "It is a cave my dear, the cows have ingeniously named it Barren Cave" A voice in her head? " Who are you?!" Alexis demanded.

"Drift back to black child, I have a gift for you" This last sentence didn't bode well and some sort of primal instinct gave Alexis the willpower to resist the temptation of sleep, once again she opened her eyes and forced herself up from the mat on which she had been lying, she avoided looking directly into the fire this time and she took in her surroundings. It was indeed a cave, and she could see the silhouettes of several other people reflected onto the walls by the log fire burning brightly. Around the fire were the sleeping mats and behind the mats Alexis could see stone slabs.

"To oblivion with this" she thought, as she could see daylight coming around a corner - A way out?

But as she tried to walk forward, what she previously thought were stone slabs turned out to be stone coffins and one of them grinded open.
"Going so soon, dear?" the voice sounded dissapointed, but with a hint of manic amusemant. "Thanks for the hospitality and everything but its time for me to go" Alexis carried on forward confidently. "No no, you cant leave me with these cows!" That was the last thing Alexis heard before a dark shape appeared in front of her, blood was trickling down her neck and then, Darkness?



Thats the introduction, I hope my writing was not too painful to read. xD
