Episode Details

This is Drabbletober, the podcast of tiny fiction.

Hello, and welcome to Drabbletober. This is episode 8, for Tuesday the 8th of October 2024, and I'm Elizabeth Guilt.

Your one-hundred word story for the day is:

Wrath

"And Henry rode up with the head on his lance..."

"Don't be stupid."

"He did! Though he must have stopped at the ford to stick it there, just to show off. It'd be too heavy to ride far..."

"He wouldn't even be able to pick the lance up."

"Are you saying my brother didn't slay the dragon? I saw the head!"

"You liar."

"I'm not. It was the size of Farmer Brod's sow."

"What?"

"I've told you, he's killed..."

"Oh, gods. We're doomed."

"Henry's saved us!"

"That size? Henry killed a baby. We're not going to survive the mother's anger."

Take care, everyone, and I'll see you tomorrow for episode 9.
