Dungeon - The pretty elf wakes

“Hnn.”

She grunted and shifted, feeling something warm against her skin. For a moment, she remained perfectly still, her mind struggling to make sense of her surroundings. The last thing she remembered was attacking a strange man carrying a sword, the flash of steel, an icy chill and then darkness.

She opened her eyes.

A fire crackled merrily a few feet away, its orange flames dancing around a carefully arranged pile of burning wood. Sparks occasionally drifted upwards, disappearing into the darkness of the enormous chamber, while the comforting smell of smoke mingled with something considerably more interesting.

Cooking meat.

She frowned, blinking several times as her eyes adjusted to the flickering light. The room was unfamiliar, although the ancient stonework and ruined furniture told her she was still inside the dungeon. Someone had cleared an area beside the wall, sweeping away centuries of dust and debris to create a reasonably comfortable campsite.

The fire itself appeared to have been assembled from whatever its creator could salvage. Broken chair legs, fragments of wooden tables and pieces of dismantled cabinets had been stacked neatly beside the flames, ready to be fed into the fire. Several larger pieces were already burning, their blackened surfaces occasionally splitting with sharp cracks as the heat worked its way through the ancient timber.

Whoever had built the campsite had certainly made himself comfortable.

Most importantly, she checked herself. She wasn’t dead, wasn’t one of the walking dead, and, judging by the absence of any obvious injuries beyond those she already possessed, hadn’t been subjected to anything particularly unpleasant while unconscious. Nevertheless, long and brutal experience had taught her to be cautious.

She quickly examined herself, looking for any wounds, bruises, or evidence of sexual assault.

Relief washed over her when she found nothing other than a few new bruises.

“You are unharmed,” he said.

She jerked her head upwards, her eyes falling upon a man sitting on the opposite side of the fire, casually turning a wooden spit suspended between two forked branches. He had dark hair, ordinary features and the rather relaxed expression of someone enjoying a pleasant camping trip rather than sitting in the middle of a dangerous dungeon.

She snorted, although some of the tension left her shoulders. “What do you want?”

“Nothing. I came here in the hopes of looting stuff, found some things, including this cool sword,” he explained, gesturing towards the weapon resting beside him, grinning at his own pun. “Cool. Ice sword. Get it?”

She stared at him without amusement, causing his grin to widen.

“Never mind. Anyway, I found a few bits and pieces, and that’s really about it.”

She followed his gesture towards the sword, noticing the pale blue stone set into its pommel. Even from where she sat, she could sense the faint magical energy radiating from the weapon, and her eyebrows rose as she recognized its distinctive appearance.

“That sword?”

“Yep.”

“Where did you find it?”

“Old armory, about three corridors back. It was lying underneath some rubbish.”

She looked at him incredulously. “You found that in the armory?”

“Is that unusual?”

She opened her mouth, closed it again and slowly shook her head. “It’s pretty much been picked clean.”

“That’s what I thought,” James agreed. “Although whoever did the picking seems to have left an awful lot of valuable stuff lying around.”

He picked up a small stick and prodded one of the burning pieces of wood, sending a shower of glowing embers tumbling into the ashes. The timber shifted with a sharp crack, exposing a fresh section to the flames, which immediately began licking around its surface.

The fire had taken him a little while to establish, largely because most of the timber scattered throughout the dungeon was either rotten or too damp to burn properly. Fortunately, he’d eventually discovered the remains of an old storage room containing several stacks of remarkably well-preserved firewood. After splitting the driest pieces with his dagger, he’d shaved thin curls from the exposed wood and arranged them over a nest of tinder.

Once the smaller pieces caught, he’d gradually added thicker sticks until he had a proper fire going. Now the logs burned steadily, their surfaces blackening and splitting as pockets of trapped moisture hissed and escaped. With a reliable source of heat established, he’d begun feeding in the drier fragments of broken furniture he’d collected from the surrounding chambers, keeping the better-preserved logs in reserve.

It was surprisingly pleasant, especially considering where they were.

“You got a name?” he asked.

“Rachael. And you?”

“James.”

“James,” she repeated thoughtfully.

He inclined his head. “Pleased to meet you, Rachael. Although next time, perhaps we could skip the attempted murder?”

She flushed. “I thought you were one of them.”

“One of who?”

She hesitated, apparently uncertain how much she wanted to tell him, but before she could answer, a particularly loud hiss came from the fire.

Fat dripped from the hare roasting above the flames, striking the glowing coals beneath it and producing a brief flare of yellow-orange fire. The smell that followed was absolutely magnificent, rich and savory, carrying hints of garlic, wild thyme and rosemary.

Rachael’s attention shifted immediately towards the roasting meat.

James had caught the animal earlier, shortly after carrying her into the adjoining chamber. He’d found a partially collapsed passage leading towards a small underground courtyard where sunlight filtered through a broken section of ceiling. Grass and weeds had reclaimed much of the ground, and several shrubs had grown around an ancient fountain, apparently providing enough shelter and vegetation for a small population of rabbits and hares to make the place their home.

He’d taken a hare with his bow, a clean shot that killed it instantly, before bringing it back to camp.

Cleaning the animal had been a messy business, but well within his experience. He’d skinned it, removed the entrails, washed the carcass with water from his supplies and rubbed the flesh with salt and crushed herbs.

The herbs had come from his pack, a modest assortment he’d purchased before leaving town. There was rosemary, thyme, a little dried garlic, and some black pepper, all wrapped separately in small paper packets. He’d also brought a little cooking oil, which he’d mixed with the seasoning before rubbing it over the meat.

It wasn’t exactly a royal banquet, but it was considerably better than eating dried trail food.

The spit itself was nothing complicated, merely a straight length of green wood he’d stripped of bark and sharpened at one end. Two sturdy forked branches supported it above the flames, allowing the hare to rotate slowly over the hottest part of the fire.

The outside had begun turning a delicious golden brown, the flesh developing a thin, seasoned crust as the heat worked its way through the meat. Fat and juices collected along the underside before dripping onto the coals, each drop producing another satisfying hiss.

James turned the spit another quarter rotation, admiring the way the meat glistened in the firelight.

Rachael’s stomach growled so loudly that he actually heard it over the crackling flames.

She blushed, looking down at herself in embarrassment as James glanced at her, then at the hare, before looking back with an amused smile.

“Hungry?”

“Devastatingly...”

He chuckled. “Thought you might be.”

She swallowed, her gaze fixed upon the roasting meat. “I owe you a debt.”

He inclined his head. “You didn’t kill me. I’ll consider us even.”

She looked genuinely surprised. “That’s not how debts work.”

“It’s how mine work.”

“But you saved my life.”

“And you very nearly stuck a knife in my stomach. So, you know, swings and roundabouts.”

She flushed again, lowering her gaze. “Thank you.”

“Don’t mention it.”

For several moments, neither spoke. The fire crackled softly between them, its warmth spreading through the little campsite as the smell of roasting meat continued to fill the chamber. James adjusted one of the supporting branches, making certain the spit remained balanced, before adding another piece of salvaged wood to the edge of the flames.

Rachael watched him quietly, trying to make sense of the strange man who had spared her life.

Most adventurers would have killed her the moment she attacked, particularly considering the condition she’d been in. Even if they’d spared her, they would have demanded ransom, information or some other form of compensation. This man had apparently decided to rescue her, build a fire and cook dinner without asking for anything in return, and she wasn’t entirely certain what to make of him.

“What happened?” James asked eventually.

She looked up. “What?”

“To you. You’re half-starved, covered in bruises and wandering around an abandoned dungeon attacking people. I’m assuming there’s a story there.”

Her expression darkened. “The boss monster took all of my stuff and left me for dead. I thought you were a thrall.”
