Amber — Troy D. Smith

A fantasy short story by Troy D. Smith

The halfling Jod Gleefellow had not expected to find adventure in the Dark Wood; he had only hoped to find a rabbit for his supper. He had certainly not expected to find an Elven maiden, imprisoned for centuries by an evil sorceror. Jod beheld the bones of the many champions who had sought to free the beautiful Elf from her amber prison -and they'd come there on purpose!

“Well, Jod, old fellow.” he said softly to himself. “You've certainly got yourself into it now.”
