366. My Script Was Perfect

Nydore's tale was not too long, so she did not take too much to tell it.

Her group of eight had initially left the village to dissuade the Wise Mad King from sending more underlings to convey his "love". This was a traditional method of gently saying 'no' to a suitor.

For this group of 8, who were all fairies — a race that loved nature — this venture was a happy getaway. As they were traveling, they had to take shelter and sleep in the woods for long periods of time. One day, Nydore discovered a suspicious looking group moving through the woods.

It was a caravan containing fairies, humans, dwarves, and even goblins — a race always hidden in catacombs. This combination was enough to make anyone suspicious. Fairies had a lot of ego and pride, so they would never be caught in the same vicinity as dwarves and goblins, who they considered low and unruly.
