Board Thread:What Would You Do?/@comment-34263048-20180224081100/@comment-30700719-20180224131743

I stretched my arms and my legs. My plan was to book it straight through the Amazoness village. If they didn't see me coming, they wouldn't be able to stop me, right? And as I got ready, I prepared a small song in my head. Because everything's better with music.

So here I was, sprinting right through their village, yelling at the top of my lungs. I was certainly confusing them. They just stared and watched as I ran past, too dumbfounded to move. However, one guy who happened to be standing between two Amazonesses made the critical failure of yelling, "Yeah! Keep going!" And like a switch was thrown, they were on me. I had a bit of a headstart, and I knew that there were some deceptive bushes near the entrance to the valley. I couldn't turn around to look at how many were after me, but my bet was on around a dozen or so. As I got to the river, I had a brave new idea. Instead of hiding in the bushes, I'd let the river carry me off, away from the Amazons. Of course, that'd get my pack wet, so that was instantly a bad idea. Brave, but bad. So instead, I just leapt into the shallowest part and waded to the other side.

It was at this moment that I was picked up off the ground and carried off. Luckily, 'twas a Harpy, and not an Amazoness. Fighting a lone Hapry would be fifteen times easier than fighting off twelve Amazonesses. I didn't do the math.
