~The Kindom of Eulevir was once a mighty fortress of light, a bastion against the beasts of the wild, lead by an Elven Queen and welcoming of all sentient races.
At least, that's what history books tell from before the great catastrophe, almost a hundred years ago. It was a story like so many, an evil cult attempting to call forth demonic forces, heroic adventurers trying to stop them. But this time, the heroes failed, spectacularly.
Now, Eulevir is more of a last bastion of civilization against the tides of demonic creatures. Other places of safety exist, dwarven citadels in the mountains, human nomadic tribes that fight with brutal ferocity for their survival, leaving one doubting if they'd not succumbed to demonic corruption more than once.
Skyla is not currently in Eulevir, but she should soon be. She hails from an elven enclave who tried to hide through magic and trickery, rather than military might. It worked well enough.. for a time. But things have become too dangerous and her people, always in small groups to avoid detection, are now moving to Eulevir.
Skyla is currently sitting in the back of a small wagon, whilest the elven spirit seer ahead leads the path, chanting a soft prayer to keep them hidden. She thinks of him because right now he coughs loudly... the magic is rather draining. "Keep focusing, Yandur, soon we'll be in Eulev- No!" Mandas, the guard of the coach shouts, as a 'thunk' noise followed by a soft, cut off scream from the front alerts you to trouble.
A peek outside the Wagon reveals that the poor seer has been impaled by a large, crude metal blade and the attackers.. Goat-men. Muscular humanoids with the heads of goats and furred legs, yet a chest and arms like a man. They growl at the tiny group of elves with malicious intent.. although one notices Skyla peeking, and leers at her with an undeniably different, but no less savage expression...
Skyla has to decide quickly... she is a decent shot, and there's a bow in the wagon, she could join the fight and deal with those creatures.. althoug there are many.
Or she could use the opportunity to flee from the dangerous creatures. Try and sneak her path towards Eulevir, her people have never been warriors after all, but can she even make it all on her own?
(Please start by describing your character shortly.. then what do? Fight or Flee? Hint.. the red option is likely not gonna lead to success...)
