Thank you for allowing an inferior human to interview you
and for taking the time from your campaign to grace us with your presence,
Torren. And now, without further delay, we will start the interview. I know
that you’re a busy Elf.
1.
What made you decide that you
wanted to be the leader of Djenrye? After careful
consideration, and eliminating the competition, I knew it to be my destiny. I
have a particular skill set when it comes to motivating the troupes. Praise,
combined with fear and humiliation is very effective. I must admit that a touch
of dark magic comes in handy now and then. The path to dominating Djenrye has
been easier than I anticipated.
2.
Domination? Why do you want to
dominate? I mean after all, you’re merely an Elf. [Here,
Torren leans uncomfortably close. He lowers his tone and nearly purrs at me] I
tell you this for your own welfare. It would behoove you to guard your speech.
It is not safe to speak of me as merely an Elf. Men have lost
their tongues for lesser offenses. You are only Hundye, human. Your species
time on this planet is…What is the term you use for all the beings you have
destroyed through your pollution and destruction of nature? …Oh yes,
extinction. [He pauses and leans back – letting out a little chuckle] But, I digress.
Back to your question. Only a fool would pass on the opportunity to be the
leader if it landed in their lap. Look at the current leader. Manem is a coward
who desires nothing more than to hide in the shadows and be left alone. Once
all Hundyes’ are eliminated, this will show the people of Djenrye what a true
leader is capable of.
3.
Why do you want to eliminate the
humans? Why not enslave them? Are you truly so naive?
You breed more of your ilk and destroy our world while the Djen – who, through
the will of the Gods – were chosen to protect it – have let you do whatever you
choose. For millennia we have watched and hidden in shadows, all the while
attempting to keep nature in balance, despite the Hundye’s best attempts at
upsetting it. But no more! The time for the inhabitants of Djenrye to step out
of the shadows is at hand.
4.
Well, you do have a point there.
So what are your plans? What madness takes you to think I would divulge
my plans? I can assure you this much - everything is in complete control. And
once I have conquered Djenrye and Terra-hun, the Hundye plane, I will conquer
the girl.
5.
So, is that the only way you can
“get the girl”? How dare you imply that I am without
charms or have no female intimates. I will have this girl! Shylae will soon be
taught to love me and bend to my desire. I have already spoken of my skills at
motivation, have I not? She will not be able to resist. I am her true mate, not
that boy, Colton.
6.
I detect a little jealousy in your
tone. I will never be jealous of Colton! There is nothing
to be envious of. He is a thorn in my side, an inconvenience to be dealt with.
Time shall prove me out. I will gain all that I desire, and more. [At this,
Torren rises to an imposing figure; my guess is around six-foot-four]. I take
my leave of you, Woman. Dominating two dimensions leaves little time for other
distractions. I have men to train and strategies to plot.

Only
from those wishing to follow me. I will send a runner with my responses. You
[he points to me] may answer queries from mewling, weak Djen supporters.
[He
flings the door of my office open and disappears into a portal]
I certainly don’t want to get on his bad side,
that is, unless Colton’s got my back. Please leave your comments for Torren.
I’m sure he will answer when he’s not creating havoc. Have a wonderful day
everyone.
Love,
Lisa

ReplyDeleteThanks Brandie! Toni and Robin had a hand in it too. We had a lot of fun with it!
ReplyDeleteI had a blast "meeting" Torren.
ReplyDeleteHey, Torren, I've got some skills at being rebellious. What will you give me if I change my allegiance and join your ranks?
My good woman, if you plan to join my ranks you must train hard with the female warriors. and if I decide you need to fill my bed at some point, you must serve me there as well.
ReplyDeleteBring it on bad boy.
