Title: A Night in Exile
Fandom: The Iron Elves Trilogy
Character(s): Konowa Swift Dragon
Summary: After murdering a corrupt Viceroy, Konowa Swift Dragon, former commander of the Iron Elves regiment, hides out in the one place he hates: the forest. It’s entirely possible the forest hates him back. Drabble.

Konowa wrapped his cloak around himself, burrowed into the pile of pine branches that served as his bed, and tried to sleep.

A root he swore wasn’t there before pressed into his hip. He shifted, and another miraculously appeared. Konowa rolled onto his back and glared up at the tree he’d made his bed under. The leaves rustled in the night breeze and dropped water on him.

Konowa took a deep breath, and rolled onto his side again to try and sleep. He couldn’t go back, so he’d just have to get used to the roots, rocks and damned trees.
