LOAFOANT | | great! Now dionysus copies my idea | Rolfex sat by the river. On his hands was a piece of parchment. He had saved three days of his part of the grain and bread and sold it in the market to buy this parchment. He had also managed to buy a nib and some ink to writ his work down. His father had thrown him out of the house when Rolfex claimed that he would not work in the sawmill and would instead write down a story for the king. All Rolfex was left with was two pairs of clothes. Though his father had offered Rolfex gold but Rolfex left without it. But Rolfex was determined to write. A week had passed since the strange meeting with the bard. Rolfex had already written down half his story but the problem was he was not being able to afford more than a meal a week.
He had started to earn some money by watching over the farm of a famous merchant of the town, Genga. But all Genga provided him was one meal. Rolfex who was tired and was in rags after only writing in the day and guarding the farm in the night needed sleep. But he just didnt have the time.
Finally one day, he fainted on the river side. Only the farmer knew that Rolfex was residing in a shack he made on his own on the river bank. Only late in the knight did he come shouting "Rolfex, Rolfex. My wife is getting angry. Come my son." The farmer wandered about searching Rolfex but with no success. He finally gave up and made a last call, "Rolfex, you are fired. You dont need to ever come back to my farm." Just as he pulled his coat up and started his journey to the farm, he stumbled upon a stone. He cursed his luck and was about to continue when somebody yawned. Genga gazed towards the ground from where the voice had come and was shocked to see blood spilled everywhere. It was lit by the moon in a very grim way forcing tears out of Genga's eyes. Just then Rolfex stood up and shocked Genga. It struck Genga there was blood on the boy's face, oh no no no, he was covered with blood! Genga helped Rolfex up. "What happened to you" Genga questoined. "Sorry master, had a bad dream. I think I am late." Replied an ashamed Genga. | Due to low entries coming the ending date has been extended to-

(a real story of mine)
Hello friends,
Last day I arrived my work an hour and a half late because of the very crowded road near the gate's check point …
An old woman and 10 years old boy with school bag on his back were waiting for me.
I treated the old lady first, and then asked the boy to get in. He was pale & shaking. He sat on the dental chair and pointed inside his mouth, and said "this is very painful".
I looked and saw nothing, I knew he was confused and pointed to the wrong side; I looked to the opposite side and saw a badly carious tooth.
I told him that we need to extract this tooth, he shake his head for approval.
"But we need to have the approval from some one older than you my dear" I said. "Any one from your family as your parents, older brother or sister, aunt, uncle, or even a neighbor ".I added.
He stepped from the chair in an attempt to leave, with his eyes full of tears, and said nothing.
-"Are you coming back with someone later? I asked.
-"no, I have no one".
-"With whom do you live?".
-"With my younger brother, he is Mongolian".
-I grip his shaky hands and took him to the patio, and asked him to look around, to the other functionaries; (they live in the same village), and asked him if he knew any one?.
Few minutes later he pointed to a man, he was one of the servants" H".
I sent for" H", and told him that I need some one of Salih' relatives because his tooth need to be extracted. He said "I am his fathers' cousin, I can stay with him because he has no One close…his older brother who was taking care of him was murdered 3 days ago"…
-why?
- He was a policeman…
-"Are you hungry, did you have your breakfast honey?" I asked Salih trying so hard to hold my tears.( I had to ask because he was pale and he could show symptoms of hypoglycemia if he was hungry, he could faint too after dental treatment).
- " no I did not , the neighbors did not bring us any". he said.
Just then I could not hold my tears any more, I took his little hands and took him to buy him something to eat.
-"let us buy something to eat, I am hungry too" ..
-" no, I will go home" said Salih pointing to a far cottage..
- I will take him to my place, bring him something to eat, and be right back"…said" H".
But the boy ran away….
I sat in my room, wondering how could these children survive. How could they live alone, what do they do in the darkness every day? Where is our government, are they aware about that policeman's family….
I can't imagine my daughter Mariam (she is 8 now) go alone to a dental clinic to extract her tooth ….it's scary for a child to face that alone.
After about an hour the boy came back with "H", he ate in his house and came seeking for treatment, I was so happy to see him again, I wanted to give him a big hug, but he was behaving like a man.. He sat silently, I gave him his shot, he was shivering, but was very quiet.
I told him he will not feel any thing he will be anesthetized, he nod his head, I extracted his tooth, and then he went without any word…..
2K gold for him | Dr. Damage- winning story-
Never lose Hope.
10 Years ago in this Empire, there was a young goblin named Hofid.
Hofid was very kind however he lived in El-Sarard; the Knights kingdom.
All the young human boys picked on him, threw rotten tomatoes, rocks, worms and dirt at him.
One day this young goblin looked at a poster. The poster read "Recruitment needed! Anyone, Any age, we need you to become our knights! The fight against the devils is becoming impossible, we lack in troops!
Join us and become a hero!"
Hofid was so happy.
He smiled a cheesy grin then looked at the Temple of the Knights.
Hofid was tired, so he went to sleep.
Since Hofid was homeless he had no healthy good, water or clean clothes.
Every night he would go to a little hole that he had dug with his green, wrinkly hands and slept there.
Today was the day; the day he was waiting for; the day to become a Knight!
Hofid walked up the spiral staircase in the 4 storied Temple, stopped on the third floor and entered the room.
He was so happy at this stage and thought nothing could go wrong.
After being registered with a number they were called out to fight eachother.
Hofid #8 had to fight Sidar #2.
Sidar was a young farmer. His father Andrew was a Knight, He has been brutally injured against the fight of the devils and now Sidar takes care of him.
But Sidar is a bully; he punches Hofid whenever he sees him and never lets Hofid join in anything he does.
The fight was Beginning but Hofid was scared.
Since Hofid was a goblin they gave him some weak Leather armour when his opponent Sidar was wearing full chainmail and a shield.
The fight started.
Hofid was walking backwards and Sidar jumped in with a massive strike but Hofid managed to dodge it. Hofid froze, it was if he was giving up.
Hofid started to kneel, as if to say he was giving up; he thought about his father, and how he died from a pack of devil Hell Hounds ripping him apart and feasting on his flesh!
Hofid stood back up and ran towards Hofid with his axe, he swung and strook, harder than ever, Sidar stumbled and fell down to the ground, making Hofid a winner!
Now fight number 2 started.
Hofid was raging as he was attack by his opponent Darlin.
Darlin has always teased Hofid and it was time for Hofid's revenge!
Darlin went in for the second strike and Hofid countered it, he swung his axe and broke Darlins sword, it broke into a billion shards scattered across the floor.
Hofid saw red, his eyes turned black, he took a fast powerful strike and chopped off Darlins head!
The last fight, Hofid versus Saucy.
Saucy wasn't a human, but an Elven Wizard.
Saucy use to torture Hofid with spells, using spells such as lighting when he was sleeping to burn him out of his hole and scream in pain, making him levitate and then pulling his body to breaking point and then dropping him on scolding rocks.
This fight was horrific.
Saucy picked up his sword, then used his magic to break all of Hofid's toes and to dislocate his ancles.
Hofid fell over, but the fight was not over because his head had never hit the ground!
Hofid was screaming in pain and thought there was nothing left that he could do; he nearly gave up.
He thought of his mother, who was burnt alive by a Mage Devil, and yet again, he saw read.
But before Hofid could do anything, Saucy casted a spell called Paralysis on him and Hofid was paralyzed.
Hofids anger built up so much that the spell wore off almost instantly!
Hofid dragged himself towards Saucy and said "It's impossible for you to kill me!"
Saucy's reply was "Let's see what you have inside of you"
Saucy picked up his Sword and was about to chop of Hofid's Head.
Everyone was shocked; they saw a small sharp blade slowly going through Saucy's body.
Hofid had managed to crawl towards Saucy picked up a fragment of the broken sword and pushed it all the way through Saucy.
Hofid was the winner.
A day later he r |
