Contested Sociability
Malene: 2 (Natural 1) vs Huntsmen: 12 and 19
“Not on your life. We’re going to have some fun with you.”
The one holding Malene’s shoulders grabs a length of rope and ties her hands together. She struggles but she’s totally overpowered between the two of them. They bind her legs as well and one tosses her over his shoulder like a sack of grain. With one of their hunting knives, they relieve her of her pack as well.
She has no idea how long they walk for, but she knows they’re walking in the wrong direction for her quest. She tries to struggle, but between the two of them she’s fully immobilized.
As night begins to fall, they come across a campsite. She wonders briefly if it’s the one she saw on her first day. They throw her to the ground next to the campfire and begin to unload the rest of their hunt. Malene has given up begging them to let her go and is now looking for a way to make her own way out.
Her hands are tied behind her back, but the most important thing is to get her feet free so she can try to run. The two men are chattering, confident that their elven prey won’t escape their camp bound as she is.
