Hello, and welcome to the first story I began to write way back in September, and have yet to complete! This so far, will be the only work-in-progress story I am posting! The rest will mainly be short and complete!
As it was written months ago, please don't pay much heed to my fail writing skills at first, as I'd just been getting back into writing!
Anywho, enough of the excuses! On with the story!
PS – It's solely dialogue for the first chapter on purpose...
As well, I own absolutely nothing that is of Labyrinth
Please LISTEN UP, because clearly some people cannot read.
No, there is no direct identity for the main character/protagonist of the story. There will be no names or identities for any story I write, and that is just how I write. If you don't like it, PLEASE don't write a review saying "No real character by (x)-chapter, I'm not bothering" or other such things. That's not what I care to hear, that's not the type of feedback I want. I specified that this character is a nameless character, she doesn't receive her 'name', or rather 'title', until the end, or until you go to my page and look at the stories set with her title.
In doing so, this also gives the reader what I hope to be a feel of being able to make this character WHOMEVER they want. There are no restraints, there are no disappointing details, it's whoever you imagine it to be, you can just as easily ignore the picture, it's just a picture, a nice cover art my girlfriend made for me. This nameless, undefined character allows for the readers to get more into it, allows them to put an image, a name, a person into this role as they so desire. In some occasions, themselves I'm sure.
I can't be positive of that, but I have 35 people following it for a reason, right?
I'm sorry if other people seem to have a problem with that, in fact, if so, feel free to message me, don't put it in a review, don't give it out for everyone else to see, I'm just going to remove. But I will happily tend to any problem the vast majority has.
If this identity thing is an issue, I will resolve it and rewrite the entire story with a real 'character'. Mmkay? I just need more than just one person saying so, in case more like it and/or don't really care.
"Wait... You're joking... Right..?"
"I'm afraid not. I am quite serious on the matter. You were wished away to me, and although the person who had done so fought to get you back, inevitably, they lost. In doing so, you then belonged to me. You were, however, still far too young, and I returned you Above and waited while you aged to an appropriate level. Unfortunately, I had lost track of you for a while, due to your family constantly relocating. But now I have returned to reclaim my prize.."
"P-prize? I'm not your prize, and I'm definitely NOT going with you!"
"I'm afraid you have no say in the matter."
"N-no say? My idiot brother 'wished me away' like fifteen years ago, and now I'm suddenly yours?! I think I should have at least some say in this! I'mNOT going with you, and-whoa- hey, no, please don't come any closer.."
"Hmm.. Still timid I see.. Such a pity..."
"..."
"As said, when they took the challenge upon themself, they lost. The deal was, if they could complete the Labyrinth, making it to my castle within the time constraints, they may return back home with you. However, if they lost, they would return home, and you would belong to me forever..."
"...Th-that's... Not fair... It's not my fault that someone else lost a stupid race. Why am I always paying the price for brothers' mistakes..? Can I at least try to redeem myself-fight for my own freedom or something?"
"Usually I would decline such an offer.. However, it has been quite some time since someone attempted to run the Labyrinth."
"..."
"Very well. You may try to reclaim your freedom. However, the same rules apply. Time is short. You have thirteen hours in which to solve the labyrinth and make it to the castle beyond the Goblin City, before you become mine once again..."
Short, yes, I know, but future entries will be longer!
