The Golem's Fall
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 62667
|
Although Fred thought it cowardly to be fearful, he loved the warm
exhilaration it sent through his body. Fred threw his hammer to one of
the walls, unsheathed his sword, and lined up with the side of the pillar.
The Ice golem, unfazed by Fred’s weapon, looked down on its prey fierce fully, its red eyes pupils following Fred’s every movement, its solid fingers twitching with eagerness. Slowly, it breathed a large cloud of cold mist, then, went down on all fours, its long, jagged nails scraped the ice like glass. It waved it’s head around as if to show off its twisted sharp, let out a tremendous roar, and then charged. Fred stood his position, sword slanted and ready to thrust. Sweat beat down on his forehead madly. He could feel his blood boiling. When the Ice Golem was only a second‘s distance, Fred dived out of his way and slid into the nearest wall whiles the Golem collided with the pillar.*CRAAAAAAAACK! * *RING, RING, RING, RING, RING, RING* A large handful of diamonds scattered were forced out on all sides of the pillars, the rings music to Fred’s ears. The Ice Golem rose, hazily, waving its cracked, broken-horned head slowly back and forth. Suddenly, he got to all fours again, roared, and charged in a wall opposite of Fred’s. It did this two more times, until the creature fell to the ground. It held out its hands, which twitched around as if hoping to grasp something, breathe one more cloud of mist, and then, silence.Fred could hear his heart beating rapidly. Slowly, he pulled himself off the wall, and with the sword still in his hand, examined the Golem’s body. “Poor creature” said a voice in Fred’s mind.“Don’t go feeling sorry for the bloody beast. It deserved what it got!” said a stronger voice. Fred agreed with the second and turned his attention towards the diamonds. As he gathered them up, he talked aloud. “Oh, you guys are going to make daddy rich. I’ll have my own section of the castle, the finest horses, drink the finest drinks and attend the finest parties…who knows? Maybe I’ll even give some of you to the poor.” Fred laughed.After getting every diamond he could off the floor and pillar, Fred is stuck on whether to continue his quest or leave and sell his riches before they‘re lost.
