Peace at Last Side Stories: The Prince and the Queens-Book I-Ambrosia

He didn't know how long he'd been here.

For days now, the ram had been trapped in this spot after walking into the Everfree, only to get lost. Timberwolves had chased him, but the minute he became stuck in this yellow stuff, they ran off, whimpering.

Days had passed. He had barely managed to hang on to life by eating the grass he could reach. That had gone many days ago, and now his skin hung to his bones. He was dying.

A flittering sound. The ram looked up.

Staring from a tree branch was a pair of green-gold eyes with slit pupils. Throat dry from lack of water, the ram spoke.

"Please... help me..."

The eyes kept staring, blinking occasionally.

"Please..."

Still no response.

"Why won't you help!?!" the ram yelled.

The being the eyes belonged to tilted her head, as if the answer was obvious.

"I want to see how thin you can get, silly!"
