The Puppet Massacre Trilogy - Part I: Firewood
((OOC: I don't like doing solos, but I am very nervous about letting anyone into this quest. If someone does wish to haggle with me then they may PM me. I will not let just anyone in, however. If you wish to join you must convence me.))
It was early in the morning. The bluebirds were all singing their merry little tunes. The sound of water trickling off rocks could be heard through the dense fog. The night’s stalkers were returning to their nests and burrows while the day’s hunters scurried around in hopes of catching that first sight of meat waltzing through the forest. Some creature had other things on their mind that finding food. Those poor creatures were the food. The now had a day of dodging predators to look forward to. Some of these sad beings were the puppets.
Led by Number 14, a puppet recently escaped from servitude to an evil master, the puppets were forced to keep a cautious eye out in case any woodpeckers spotted to group. It was a stressful life for those wooden toys, but they felt slightly reassured knowing that they had someone with them who promised he would provide a safe journey to a land where the puppets could live in peace not having to worry about the dangers of kids breaking them, carts running over them, or birds picking away at their tiny bodies.
They would have willingly paid for the services of the outsider, Number 14, but 14 had to much pride for that. It was his duty, as he saw it, to free these puppets from the hard times they had gone through. It was the same as being a slave in his mind. Anyone who lives a life controlled by fear is truly a slave.
He had heard in many taverns that he had passed trough in his pursuit of evil-doers that a life in the mountains was a peaceful life. He was sure that if he could lead the puppet caravan to the Comb Mountains his own wrong actions would be slightly righted. It is for that reason that he blazed through the pecker’s home, for a home fit for a king.
The caravan of wooden beings marched forth in hopes of reaching the mountains where they could build a home for those of their kind. It was the dream of any one who had ever been discriminated against because of who they were. Every race needs their home, their sanctuary, their haven; puppets were no different.
They followed Number 14 blindly. If they turned on him now deciding the journey was to perilous to continue they would never make it out of the demonic forest alive. There was no one else strong enough to defend them against the constant attacks from the wild life; there was no one else who even knew the way out. The only thing distrust would cause now would be chaos. They bottled every doubt and pressed forward without question.
Every time a wild creature eyed one of their numbers they would always do the same thing…
