" Begging for a story I see? Wondering why I am in this land... " a fair scarfy said, her face masked with confusion before a polite chuckle past her lips. " Ah well, my little sprießen, I can tell you that...but it is certainly a time of distress for me... "
Humming softly, she closed her eyes and tiled her head closer to a patch warmed by the glowing sun before she began her story.
" You see, I was an orphan, separated from my parents as I was cast aside by lizardmen who originally raised me "
" I searched for my way home, but instead stumbled onto the laps of a tribe lizardmen...I guess my only luck was I was still a child, so they intended to wait for me to grow larger before they devoured me whole... "
" So I was forced to stay in that village, raised and trained for their own enjoyment until the day they awaited eagerly. The day they could consume me. But as I grew up they became relaxed in how tight their security around me was. They slacked... "
" The lizardmen let me wonder a small area around my pen, shared by other scarfz, but from that small area I wondered, I saw the way to escape. I watched their movements, their paths and learnt how they moved about. And that was when I saw my chance to escape... "
Clearing her throat, the scarfy opened her soft eyes and smiled sweetly as she paused the story. " And you see my little sprießen, I learnt they tended to have a gab of no lizardmen by a certain entrance when the guards switched over. They were lazy I suppose, guessing nothing would happen..."
A chuckle passed her lips.
" But the look on their faces when they discovered I escaped! I hadn't gotten far though, and they did indeed chase me...but frankly lady luck must of been on my side as I escaped...a close call indeed... "
The soft smile never leaving her face as she turned to look at her, the smile crinkling her eyes a bit. " And then I found this land, this garden of sweet sights and smells I raised I cared for after my escape... "
" Looking at this garden reminds me everyday of how much lady luck can smile upon you, I can think she will smile upon you to little sprießen "
( Little note, sprießen is german for sprout because I picture her as german for some reason XD)
