Creatures Caves

(This is a place where I will put some stories that come into my head. Stories can be anywhere from one paragraph long to 10 or more posts long. This is the story telling area I am about to describe to you. As each story ends, or if there is a written "interuption", you will come back to the story telling area)

Imagin this: You walk in a land full of forests and trees. You continue to walk until you come to a cave. You peer inside.

The cave is lit by a fire, and croweded around the fire are... creatures! Norns, ettins, grendels, the occasional geat, and a few mixed species are sitting there around the fire.

All the creatures then begin to crowd closer to one creature. He is a very old draconian norn, with a grendel tail and whose left arm is ettin. All creatures, from baby Pippin norns to mean looking banshee grendels to calm looking worker ettins crowd close to the old norn.

The old norn speaks

"So, all of you have managed to come. Well done. Now, you all came to listen to my tales. Of course. If you did not want to listen, why would you be here. So I'd better get right to the first tale."

The old one cleared his throut and began:

The Flood

The flood is about the world of the handish, and an event in a small handish town that changed everything.

There were a group of young handish playing in a pit full of water that they call a pool. They were having a great time. They jumped off a thing they called a diving board, and fell into the pit. They threw around a yellow ball, and when they were done, they got out of the pit.

Now they dried themselves and put some stuff on that they called clothes. The male handish then began showing off to the female handish with many antics, for handish begin to court eairlyer than norns do. The female handish were paying no attention.

It was then that one male handish happened to hear something. He looked up, and listened. It sounded like the roar of waves, even louder than any wave found in the Pool.

A female handish heard it too, and she left her female companions to see what was up. She saw the male handish standing there, and knew it was not in her mind.

And then it came.

A mountain of water rushed fowards, gobbling up everything in its path. The handish looked up and screamed. Some of them tried to run away. Some of them grabbed onto others. The two who had seen it first stood stock still, and the wave took them all.

It hit. It ate the handish right there. The handish drifted in the waves. They were in shock, so at first they did nothing but let the water carry them. Slowly they recovered, and started to swim towards the top. It wasn't easy, for their Clothes were heavy in the water, and weighed them down.
