I come in peace. I bring a message from the music forum. :)

We need people to write short little snippets of RPG-ish storylines for our first music compo. The compo participants will then be able to choose one of them and make a song about it. Compo participants may also write something, but they have to use someone else's snippet for their song.

So write away, puny earthl... er... I mean... fellow totally not alien humans such as myself. *phew* close one there.

Scene:
The main character (our hero) has just been betrayed by the classical healer-female herione. They are on a dark beach, with black waves peircing behind him. She stands over top of the corpse of his best friend, and her eyes glow a hollow white. She has been possesed by an ancient demon known as Therolokt, a demon they were on a quest from taking over the world. While trying to vanquish the demon, it's spirit has fallen into her body and has swallowed her soul, using her as a helpless puppet to destroy those who are trying to overcome him.

She laughs as she pulls the sword out of the hero's best friend's body and turns to him.

"Do you have the guts to destroy me? To tear me from the body you love and hold dear? Oh what a wonderful shadow this shell is. It protects me from do-gooders like you."

Frustrated, our hero screams and attacks her.

Write the music for either this scene, or the combat that comes afterward.

Nothing yet?
Okay, guess I'll start this off...

EDIT: heh, simultaneous post :)

The main character and his best friend are being attacked by the evil king's knights in their town. The main character gets an arrow in the leg and can't move. A knight rides up to him on horseback to finish him off, but his friends springs into action and does battle against the knight. He defeats the knight but is fatally wounded himself.

Dunno what format you want it in, or what you mean by short blurb, but this is what I've just thought up... Sorry if it's too long, got a bit carried away. ;)

EDIT: Huh, okay. There were no posts when I posted this. Garg. =p

His legs were completely numb by the time he found his way back to the path. Hundreds of strange tree-like growths sprouted up from the ground here, all emitting the same odd clicking noise. The larvae...
He darted down the path through the makeshift forest of insectoid trees, not taking the time to look back to see if they were still on his trail.
What had he done to deserve this? Nothing that he could think of. It must be some kind of mistake, a mixup... The Hunters didn't decide to put a hit on someone for no reason at all.
But his thoughts were cut short as he caught a glimpse of the three green-clad figures up ahead. However, the trio of hunters soon became the least of his worries as he heard the telltale creaking noise of one of the bulbous larvae uprooting itself to hatch. As the gigantic insect slammed down upon his helpless body, the last thing he heard was one of the hunters calmly speaking...
"Natural causes. Let's go."

Here's my effort...

Our hero wakes up to find himself alone, in a dark, empty, metallic coridoor.

Struggling to his feet, he trys to get his bearings. "Where is everyone? Where am I?" he wisphers...

He looks for an exit, but the coridoor is endless in both directions. Confused, he collapses to his knees against the wall. Fear like he's not felt since he was a child takes him over, and he starts to cry, bitterly.
