Plot

Aruna lives in a city in peril due to the increasingly hostile and controlling government. Cities
have been blocked off, unable to leave the towns and cities freely on most occasions. This
escalated till only government officials and “special cases” could be let through. You only ever
see the gates open for those leeches, government officials, and prisoners.

Aruna lives in ___ with her father Seb, a local blacksmith stuck in the town by government
force. When Seb is taken away by the government leeches abruptly Aruna does what any sane
person would do, plan her escape, flee her town, and find her father all while hiding from the
forces in her way.

First, she waits for those leeches to stop by the town. The only ones allowed in and the only ones
allowed out, other than prisoners of course, such as Seb. The life on the other side of that damn
wall could be anything, it could be dangerous, it could be wonderful, but for sure Seb is on the
other side of that wall. The plan is simple, leeches from the kingdom come every so often to
impose fear onto the villagers, either by thinly veiled threats or executions in broad daylight. The
leeches usually roll in the gate with a carriage lead by horses to extract their victims. Once the
town is busy in the square, she will attach herself onto the bottom of the carriage, out of sight,
and leave with the guards and prisoners. The prisoners are usually your usual run of the mill
criminals, thieves, con-men, gang members, and people willing to kill others in this small
secluded and closed off hell hole, but there will always be those unfortunate enough to be
accused of the worst of all crimes, harbouring magic.

The night of the escape was the night where they burned the most bodies. Everyone was herded
into the town square like sheep. It had never been this dark when the leeches showed up to
torment the town, a restless murmur carried through the crowd of onlookers, quiet as not to be
heard by the government dogs standing up the stage. It would be harder to escape now, guards
not only surrounded
