Micro Fiction/ Flash Fiction Theme: I’m Just the Messenger
Courier Woes
No matter how well it paid, I knew better than to accept a job from the Magical Counsel.
They handed me the Cursed Crest of Misery… which attracts demons. Then, they showed me the delivery location on an enchanted map.
Across the Abyssal Ravine… was I supposed to grow wings magically? Through the Eldritch Wastes… somehow keeping my body parts and mind intact. Lastly, up the ninety-degree angle of the Mountain of Jagged Perilands to the Apex of Desolation.
Who did they think I was?
“You all realize that I am just a messenger, right?”
