Choose Your Own Adventure C36

You remain in your suspended position for a couple hours. And then you hear the sound of something crashing through the forest. At first you think maybe it is a large group of charging orcs or a stampede of deer, by the loud sound it is making. But then two giant figures appear. Trolls! A pair of giant trolls!

“I thought me smell human,” one of the trolls said.

“She look tasty,” the other says. “We take her!”

You cry out in terror as the trolls stroll over to you and with their massive strength, they break the tree branches to which you were acquired with rope to free you from your bindings. One of the trolls throws you over his shoulder and then they depart with you, ignoring your screaming and flailing.

The trolls take you back to their lair. They toss you in a tiny cage and then they prepare a fire. After the fire is ignited, they place a large cauldron filled with water over the fire. They start tossing in all kinds of vegetables, roots, mushrooms, and plants into the water. As the water starts to simmer, you realize they are making some kind of soup or stew.

The trolls remove you from the cage. You realize what is going into the stew next. You scream as the orc dangles you over the cauldron. “No! Please!” you scream. You realize your refusal to submit to slavery has doomed you to a much worse fate. You are going to a be a meal for trolls.

You are dropped into the scalding water. You scream in agony. Thankfully, after a few minutes you receive the mercy of death as your cooked into the stew.

It is the end for you.
