The young woman let out a sharp gasp as she awoke, tied down in a cell, like every day for the last several months. She groaned as she sat up the best she could. She couldn't believe how her life had come to this, it all started only a few short months ago.
Liliona mumbled to herself as she looked into her mug of ale, she was sitting in The Prancing Pony of course, it was the disgruntled guards favourite spot in the city of Bree after all.
A few hours and a couple mugs later she heard a voice emanating from behind her,
"This doesn't seem like the type of place for a girl like you" the voice whispered hoarsely.
"Eh.. Not really, the Ale tastes like piss but it's dirt cheap, so I can't complain" The guard muttered in response as she ran a hand over her scarred face and through her short black hair.
"But there's so much more for you out there! Untold opportunities!" The voice chuckled lowly.
"Aye and?" The girl snorted, "I'm just a guard, nothing more... I stopped chasing stupid dreams of fame long ago..."
"I've seen you around Beggar's Alley..." The voice replied, "You may hide it but we both know you want to change that... There's a cave just a few miles from Bree.. Filled with amazing treasure... Enough to save your precious Alley.."
The young and naive girl raised a brow, "Oh? And where might that be?"
The shadowy man leans in and whispers the directions to Liliona then quickly exits the bar. Liliona being the young, inexperienced girl she is follows the mans directions the next morning and finds herself at the mouth of a large cave. She lets out a small sigh and enters the gaping maw.
A few minutes later and no with no sign of treasure Liliona grumbles to herself about how this was just a waste of time and nothing else. A few moments later she hears a scuffle behind her, the girl turns just in time to see a rock descend upon her head and send her into the spiralling darkness of her subconscious.
She awakes a few hours later, tied and thrown into a cell. The voice begins speaking from somewhere within the cave's shadows, it explains that he is a doctor of sorts, and Liliona is to be her new test subject.
Back in the present the woman sits in the corner of her cell, not a word escapes her lips. A few moments later she see's something odd, the lock to her prison has been unlocked and the cell door hangs open. Liliona sees her chance and decides to take it...
After squirming free from her bindings she crawls out of the cell and finds her way back to the surface, with nothing but the torn clothing on her back she stumbles off into the wild, in hopes of returning home to Bree after such a long time.
