Microfiction Theme: My kingdom for half a goose

 

The exhausted, emaciated knights knocked on the door of a cozy-looking cottage. A young woman, named Sylvia, was in the middle of cooking when she answered.

 

“Milady, please, may we partake of part of your dinner?” The 3rd prince pleaded.

 

“…Only a little bit. The rest is for my husband,” Sylvia smiled.

 

“For half of that goose. I will give you my kingdom.” Their leader joked.

 

She served them a warm meal and asked why they were here.

 

They were hunting the monster Belobog.

 

“Honey, these men are looking for you!” Sylvia called out to the presence behind the soldiers.
