Finally, we made it out of the city. While I would prefer to have time to process my emotions, I must focus on the task at hand, which is finding a camp. As the evening approaches, I along with the eccentric tiefling Olgoth, and the mysterious elf Tanyl all decide on a meadowy pasture. The pasture has recently turned an emerald green. As spring slowly approaches, multiple flowers and plants start to bloom and grow. I recognize my favorites: hyacinths, irises, and primrose. All of which I remember picking when I was younger. Oh how the days were simpler back then, now those memories have gone sour like foul milk or a rotten apple. I shouldnāt get sentimental with these memories. I need to set up.
The camp that we set up is just three tan tents. They arenāt big, but they are big enough to keep us covered from the elements. āWell, this will do.ā, I sigh as I gather wood to start a fire and cook. Tonightās dinner consists of simple cooked garlic buttered chicken, mashed potatoes, and some beer. A hearty meal for our first time together, after all I went through I deserve it. I havenāt had this type of meal ever since my family died. What they served at the convent was usually some type of bland porridge. Once everything is cooked, we eat. It is silent among the three of us tonight. Whether it be from exhaustion or just simply because we have nothing to discuss, we enjoy our dinner in silence. Afterwards, we all clean up and go to bed. I spend extra time out in the stream nearby, washing off today and thinking about the sins I committed before I left the convent.Ā
It was in the afternoon, and I had been in the temple all day, reflecting and praying to Zaris to guide me as I was about to go on a church mission, outside of Briarvale. There had been a natural disaster in one of the neighboring cities. While it was raining in Briarvale, whole houses were destroyed, families separated. My job was to heal the injured and give funeral rites for the dead. Before I left, I had to meet with Father Orphon. Father Orphon was the leader of the Cult of Zaris. During my time at the convent, I worked directly under him and a Brother of Zaris, Brother Eyonos.Ā
Approaching Father Orphonās door, I quietly knocked as if to not disturb him. A voice boomed from inside, ācome in!ā I open the door and see Father Orphon at his desk. He is in his mid 50s, dressed in a black priest habit and robe. His salt and pepper hair is slicked back and neatly tucked back under his black cap. He warmly smiles at me, āAh, Sister Areya. How lovely it is to see you.ā I nod and quickly bow before him, āFather, I heard you wanted to see me?ā He kept smiling, āyes, I needed to talk to you about your duties before you go on this mission.ā Suddenly another figure stepped into the room, Brother Eyonos. He harshly grabbed me by my shoulders and then pushed me onto an empty desk. āFather?? What is going on? What are you doing?ā I start to panic. āMy dear sweet Sister. You just lay there and donāt worry about a thing.ā My breath quickens and I start to tremble, tears start to roll down my face. Iām held in place by Brother Eyonos, and the skirt of my robe gets pulled up by Father Orphon. My blouse gets ripped by Brother Eyonos. He grabs harshly at my breasts, rolling and pinching each nipple between his fingers. I start to sob, āplease stop, Iāll do anything, please stop. Lady Zaris wonāt approve. Iām supposed to stay pure.ā My pleas fall upon deaf ears, as Father Orphon pushes inside me, I cry out and my mouth is suddenly gagged by the fabric of my blouse. Father Orphon gives me no time to adjust, he starts thrusting in and out roughly. Brother Eyonos continues to assault my breasts while shamelessly stroking himself through his robe. I close my eyes, thinking this will all go away if I do. The painful stretch, the cold hard wooden desk on my back, I need it all to go away. I am then slapped harshly, and Brother Eyonos yells, āOPEN YOUR EYES YOU WHORE. Look at us. Look at what weāre doing to you.ā I can hear Father Orphon grunting in sick pleasure, āoh sweet Sister. You feel divine, I would do as Brother Eyonos says, as he is much crueller than I am.ā I open my eyes and more tears flow from them, I get a feeling in the pit of my stomach. Am I enjoying this? Am I really a whore for liking what is happening to me? Brother Eyonos smirks and laughs cruelly, ālooks like the little whore is enjoying this.ā My eyes widen and I shake my head. That reaction alone is answered with a hard slap on my face. A few more thrusts from Father Orphon and he finishes inside of me, his calloused, clammy hands gripping at my hips as he does. I groan out soon after and cry unconsolably. It seems as though this assault is not finished yet, as Brother Eyonos eyes me hungrily. He switches places with Father Orphon, and just like the sick and twisted Father, he pushes into me and thrusts his hips erratically and unexperienced, as if this was his first time. He claws at my hips, my stomach, my breasts. Everywhere. He finally settles on clasping a hand on my neck, cutting off my air and blood supply. I feel him speed upā if that is even possible. I feel lightheaded, my vision going in and out, as I start to pass out from the lack of adequate oxygen and blood supply. Father Orphon notices and scolds Brother Eyonos, āNow now, we donāt want to kill her. Let her breathe.ā Then I feel Father Orphon reaching down to rub my clit, almost as if he felt remorseful for not giving me any pleasure at all. I cry out and attempt to writhe away from his sick touch. āNo my dear, donāt run from this. You know you need your release.ā My head feels hazy, my breathing is erratic. I once again feel a sickening feeling in my lower stomach. It intensifies and soon, I feel it finally crashing over me like a giant wave. I twitch, spasm, and cry out. Brother Eyonos finishes inside me soon after and then pulls out.Ā
As I lay there, spent, tired, and hazy. I softly cry as both men dress back up and act like nothing happened. Father Orphon then turns back to me, āI would go if I were you. Iām sure you are tired my dear.ā Brother Eyonos smirks, āoh and if you tell anyone about this, I will have you executed in front of the congregation.ā They then walk out of the room as if nothing happened. I sit up, and a sudden urge to vomit comes over me. I do just that, all over the wooden desk where I once laid sinfully. I then put my head in my hands and cried.Ā
I know that Lady Zaris will be most displeased. This was all my fault. I get up, and go to my room. I wash off, hoping that the soreness and the bruises go away during my bath, but they unfortunately remain⦠as do the memories.Ā
