Hogsworth's POV

Am I dead?

I think I'm dead. 

That has to be it, right? I'm dead.

There's no other-

"Get up asshole, you're not dead."

I opened my eyes to see Kralos looking at me with a very unhappy expression.

"What..."

Kralos rolled his eyes. "You basically turned into a porcupine when you last died," he explained. "Can't believe you died from a bunch of arrows."

He's right. That is very pathetic of me.

"Luckily for you, The Overseer's been feeling generous," Kralos continued. "So he decided to give you one last chance."

One last chance?

Kralos smirked. "Unfortunately for you," he said. "The Overseer doesn't trust a coward like you to be out in battle yet, so you'll start off with a lowly job, watching the prisoners."

You're enjoying this too much, aren't you? I thought bitterly.

"Alright," I said. "That's fair."

I walked down into the dungeons and sat down at a post, which was close by to the only two prisoners down there. 

"Oh, now they put a guard here?" One of them snarked. "After three months? Wow, Pazura would've done a lot better than that."

Short chapter, but... 

Yes.
