Choose Your Own Adventure C17A

You still refuse to submit. So does Rosalind. You prepare for the worst as the orcs drag you out. You are taken to an outdoor pen. It is filled with pigs and you and Rosalind are thrown into the pen.

You have now been in the pen for almost a week. You assume its purpose is to degrade you and make you feel like an animal. You are made to eat discarded scraps of food with the pigs. You are caked in dirt and mud and pig shit from the pen. But if this is the orcs’ way of making you submit, it is not working. You remain resolved to resist. And though it is degrading and humiliating to eat beside these pigs, you are actually well fed here in this pen, even if the food is discarded, half-spoiled scraps.

An orc approaches. He is holding a long dagger. “Alright sluts, you have been fattened up enough. Time to slaughter you for the slave gruel.”

And then you realize why you have been put in this pen. It was not to break you. The orcs have decided to fatten you up and then slaughter you to add to the slave gruel. “I submit!” you cry, not wanting to die. “Master, I will be an obedient and slutty slave!” Rosalind joins you, begging to submit.

But it is too late. The orc quickly dispatches Rosalind and a couple of the pigs, slitting their throats. You are the last one to be killed. Seeing Rosalind's throat slit completely breaks you.  You realize she died because of you.  Because you were too proud to submit.

You have avoided slavery. But at a great cost. Your last thought before your throat is slit that at least you will die without submitting. But it is little consolation.

Your meat will provide much needed protein for the orcs’ slaves in their gruel.
