RAVEN
The crowd roars with triumph as I keep my back plastered to the wall.
The bloodbath in the pit below holds everyone captive as the referee
counts down to zero and calls the fight. The winner throws his hands above
his head, celebrating his victory, while healers swarm the man at his feet in
an attempt to save him.
Resurrection is against The Monarchy’s law, so it’s no surprise when the
healers call time on the man’s life, sending another ripple of applause
around the underground setup. We cheer at the loss of a man’s life. That’s
what everything has come to. There’s no hope here, no blossoming gut
feeling of a future that equates to more than this.
Shadowmoor.
Filled with shadows and…moor shadows.
Nothing more, nothing less. It’s in the name, but when we came here
fourteen years ago, my mama and I, I didn’t understand. Yet day after day,
week after week, it has drained my perky step and cheery smile and turned
me into just another one of them.
I lurk in the shadows, hiding from the sun’s glare as if threatened by its
rays. I don’t know why I’m here. I do this every week, watching the
brutality before my eyes, but I gain nothing. There’s not much else you can

slink away from the pit. I avoid the larger crowds, focusing on putting one
foot in front of the other until I step through the side door and find myself
in the forest again.
I purse my lips as I glance back at the tree trunk I just stepped out of,
expecting something…more to happen, but, as usual, nothing does. Keeping
my hood over my face, I head for the clearing that is the fastest way home.
After only two steps, I halt at the sound of a snapping branch. I know it
wasn’t me. The noise came from my left. I was hoping to avoid this tonight,
my knuckles still busted from the beginning of the week, but there’s no rest
for the wicked.
“Is that little Raven out all alone? Whatever will we do with her?”
Disappointment washes over me. I know that voice. The man behind it
is why I’ve sworn off men. Again. It’s not my fault his pencil dick didn’t
make me want to stick around. His asshole complex definitely didn’t help
either. Now it seems his ego is here to rear its ugly head. Delightful.
Pulling my hood off, I turn to face him, not at all surprised to find him
lurking in the shadows with his two closest friends flanking him. Alone, he
