Default Re: Tales of the Roving - City on Wheels

He can feel his heart beating through the rags, sleep having deserted him after being woken for the ninth time that night. He can also hear the furtive footsteps and hushed breathing from but a few feet away. Dark garb more often that not betrays dark intents and the prisoner can not know who those intents would be directed at. Has someone come for revenge? Is he finally being released from his torments? Or is it a different kind of release that is awaiting him?

The intruder does not look at the prisoner, doesn't even seem to acknowledge his existence. Whether that is good or bad he does not, can not know. He wonders about the stranger. He wants release. He wants it badly. Even if it is death.

But then again, there is still some fun to have in life.
