Challenge
100 Word Fantasy Story
This is the 100th challenge in the Fantasy Portal. For this challenge, write a very short story set in some sort of fantasy setting, or at least have elements of fantasy, in exactly 100 words. Elves, trolls, magic, dragons, knights, princesses, whatever comes to mind when you think of the genre Fantasy.
Ignis
"Ignis, stay," Archer commanded, silver eyes locked on the dragon's.
The deep orange of its eyes seemed to smolder in defience as it crawled forward. Ignis paused, waiting to see what Archer would do.
"Ignis, stay."
The dragon stopped midstep, eyes wide, muscles taut and rib cage rapidly expanding and contracting. After all, if the dragon wouldn't obey, then Archer was going to make him.
"I'm stronger than you. We don't have to do this the hard way."
The dragon growled, but its attempt at intimidation was laughable. It blinked, growl dying away. His eyes were no longer orange--but silver.
