The old lizard man took in a deep breath and sighed.
"I think I understand, so you got yourself cursed..." the chieftain said.
"Exactly, I didn't mean to insult your people." the man assured
The old lizard man stood up slowly and walked over to the now sitting man,
he put an arm on his shoulder, "Nevertheless, we can't leave your crimes unpunished." the chieftain solemnly said.
The man gulped, images flashed through his head, the gallows, a pit of snakes, that damn barrel.
"I sentence you to..." the lizard man began.
The man is sweating intensively at this point.
"A month of community service." the chieftain said.
One of the smaller lizard men got closer and began to speak, "Chief, aren't you being too lenient?!"
Another one interrupted, "Yes, this is just another attack from the humans!"
The massive, black scaled lizard man spoke up,
"Silence! you will only obey the chieftain's order!" the muscular figure roared.
The chieftain turned his withering gaze towards the smaller lizard man, "The look in his eyes seems genuine, I ask you as the leader of these people, please trust my judgment." The old man began to bow but was stopped by the figure sitting in the corner of the room unnoticed.
"Please dear, there is no need to be reckless, people your age shouldn't be moving so much!" an equally old lizard woman said.
The large lizard man ordered the two smaller ones to take the man away.
The man was taken through the village of suspicious stares to a small one-room house built into the side of a small cliff, the features that stood out were the small planter boxes in the front, a very large round window, an empty birdcage.
"This looks more like a luxury cottage than a prison cell..." the man commented.
The smaller lizard man chuckled and put a hand on the man's shoulder.
"Don't think of yourself as a prisoner, rather a forced citizen, sorry about what I said earlier, we've been a little on edge since the last human raid." the lizard man spoke,
"By the way, my name's Razyl, feel free to ask me anything," Razyl added
"Thanks, I guess, I think I'll go to bed, for now, I think tomorrow will be pretty eventful." the man said.
The two exchanged their farewells and parted ways.
the man woke up in a soft, straw bed. rays of sunlight beamed in through the window, making all the dust in the air visible.
"Nice home.." a voice said, this caused the man to jolt out of bed, it was the girl from before.
The man calmed down for just a second before he began to be filled with rage.
"What the hell are you?" the man asked.
"Names' Mi, I'm the demon haunting this barrel. " Mi said, the same blank look on her face.
Mi continued to talk, "And you're the person who I chose to be my vessels, so would you please stop running and take responsibility for what you got yourself in to?"
"Look here, Demon, you got me into an ass load of trouble and now you're going to get me out of it!" the man angrily said.
"Or I could roll over to the old lizard and show him some of your collection, I wonder if he would still be so kind to a per-" Mi said blankly.
"Alright, Ok stop being so loud!" The man said in a hushed angry tone.
"So we got a deal?" Mi asked.
Suddenly a knock came from the door.
"Human, I'm coming in!" The familiar raspy voice announced.
The man quickly turned to Mi, but found her to be gone.
The door swung open, and the large, black scaled lizard man entered the room.
"Human, from today on you, will be working under me, my name is Kaber, and you are?" the lizard man inquired.
"I'm ... my name is Gyll." Said the man
