The Feldip Hills :: essays research papers

The Feldip hills...a vast and unforgiving wilderness riddled with unreliable swamps, vicious wolves and the occasional brutish ogre. But the feldip hills are also foundation to much mundane creatures. Deep in a valley removed south of the high walls of yanille and gu-tanoth there was a nomadic settlement. All tents make from ragged and stained fabrics. These tents were in a circle with a large tent at the centre and the embers of a fire smoked in front of its doorway as a dim sun bloom and an oily orange filled the valley, light filtered through thick sear clouds. A great scream broke the silence in the inner circle from a tent close to the fire. A great and bloated ogre char lay heaving on a bed of wolf skins a bearded man besides her trying to utter words of babys dummy and reassurance. The shrill cries woke the rest of the tribe and many people filled the fusty tent. For hours and hours she lay in labor and the man beside he began to despair. Many more hours past and at midday began to cough blood onto the dusty appall beside her before finally letting go of life. The baby was born muscular and strong but motherless in a sad distort of plonke. His father sat by the packfire unmatchedness night cradling him in an kine hide blanket beside the chief. "You see Yarnok this is what happens when ogres and humans mix it only leads to somberness and lost lives." "Ogres and humans simply dont mix you must understand this." "nay Giron she was not like the others she had compassion and honor." In the next valley a group of ogres were gathered around a crudely constructed camp fire, one addressed the others. "Im ungry Grot I wants some meats" "Shut up ur fat mouth you, we can all av umies wen we find wer dey av been iding." "Bu I is starvin an I cant wait tha lung, he grunted" "I sed one more peep outa u and its wulf fuud" The Ogres eyes darted and he took a rock at Grot with his oversized fist, knocking Grot down into the fire. The camp filled with the rank smell of burning ogre flesh and fat. They came in the night across the hill lead by Skrop. "U ther" he grunted U get the stabers and u get the suutas, we huntin humies tonight nut chompys.
