The Eternal Night

The Light of the Breaking Morn, sets the skies aflame. A voice shrieks in a near by village. A Snake like Chimera appears beneath my feet. I tremble with fear. I cannot run. I am still. I am like a stone that cannot be moved. The Chimera strikes at me; everything goes black. I awake with a scream. I lie in bed with the cold feeling of sweat running down my face. However I do not awake in my home. I have been wrapped in bandages. I ask aloud " Where am I?" There is no one around to her my voice. The Curtain over the door opens. A hand reaches into the room. I go to clutch the nearest blunt object next to my side. Instead, I see the glimmer of a freshly sharpened blade. I grab the blade with my left hand. The blade is heavy and in my weakened state I cannot move the sword. I lay myself self down quickly. I close my eyes and I lay still, waiting for the attack.
