“Let’s play a game,” said the silver ash.
And they made up stories that may be sometimes true.

Story of a Giant Beaver

10/14/2018

 

Topic: A pub is opened across Goldsmiths college. We need an antagonist.

Antagonist: Douglas 
A giant northern beaver that likes to drink— 
He is a great story teller and tell stories wherever he goes, but he is also never satisfied and drain everything wherever he goes. 
Hates gin.

A story has a beginning, middle, and an end. Write a story for the antagonist. 10 mins.

It is a cool autumn evening.
Douglas went into the town, weary and sad from all the long battles in the morning.
The doors are all closed and there were no one that he could talk to.
He went into a newly opened bar.
Went in.
Took a few drinks.
He noticed the sweetness of the ale.
And there was something inside.
Something else.
He looked up from the cup and tried to regain his senses. 
It wasn't long until he realized that something was wrong.
He was a warrior of course.
Cunning and adventurous.
But here in his hometown, where he had left his belongings nothing could have had tried to harmed him.
Why aren’t there any people? 
They have hidden themselves away from him, because he was known as a villain, not a hero, in their songs after the third war of the gods. 
They said that he is double-faced; he is the sly god, the god who had betrayed their beloved all-father. 
And then he realized why the ale tasted differently.
Once they would have had drank and sang with him in their drinks. 
Now, 
Now he noticed the net beneath his feet.
It was the gods. 
As a dart he lept for the door, while the door was nowhere to be found--
It is an allusion.
He heard the gods jeered and laughed on top of him, while he was trapped in this mortal pub.
He rose.
They got him.
They looked at him, while he examined their expression.
And he started to burn.
