The World of Secfenia

An ageless seven-year-old who possibly came from a cat's dream. She really should never have underestimated the girl. They were getting closer to the market place now and while that presented certain opportunities it also meant that she was closer to whatever complication the stolen freznics were go...

Without realising it she found herself chuckling at the image of the dignified feline being bathed or chasing after beams of light. But the stolen coins still weighed down any chance at relaxing. She could feel them against through the material of her pocket. What now? She had to come up with a plan...

Madeliefie kept her smile fixed on her face thinking, "Well, that didn't work. Now she's given me more money. Who just gives money away? This is very suspicious." Maybe she should try the "I left something behind trick." She could run back to the horse and put the money back and ...

Madeliefie knew she couldn't wait any longer. She prepared herself and then pretended to stumble into the girl. She was instantly all apologies. " Oh my goodness, how clumsy of me! Are you alright? I'm such a klutz. I'm so sorry. " She bent and picked the handful of coins off the ground. &...

She watched the girl take the money and waited for her to be out of sight before casually approaching the horse.  She wished she had a bit of bread or ca...

Two hundred freznics. Two hundred freznics and a mark who was careless about where those freznics went. Madeliefie couldn't believe her luck. She'd slipped into the graveyard to hide after an accident while she was practising her juggling near the temple windows. Someone had shouted something about ...

The world tilted and spun. She felt a burning nausea that was worse than the pain from her wounds. How could nausea burn? She wondered vaguely. It didn't matter. She just needed it to stop.  She stumbled towards a tent, holding on to trees to keep herself upright. " Come on ," she told her...
