As you wander through your travels, you hear what sounds like an animal cry out in pain. A wolf or canine of some kind based on the sound. You set off towards the sound. Just as you think you’ve lost the trail and you are better off returning to your wandering, you begin to hear a whimper in the distance. Low, pathetic whimpering, hard to hear. Should you choose to continue and follow it, you’ll find one of the dogs that frequent Boralus and Kul’Tiras with its paw stuck in a trap of sorts. Do you free it and tend to it, eventually making it your companion? Do you leave it, as it is not a trained canine or large enough to be more than an idle companion?
Info
This is meant to be a fun exercise, so there aren’t many rules.
Prompts are fun little things meant to inspire. You don’t have to perfectly match the prompt. Just let it inspire a thought.
I’m going to try and post these weekly, sometime between Saturday and Monday probably. Feedback and prompt ideas are welcome, so feel free to post them in the archive thread. Some prompts will be more thought provoking, some more whimsical. Respect your fellow writers.
Disclaimer: I cannot take full credit for every prompt. Some of these I create on my own, some are prompts I’ve seen that I’ve taken a WoW spin to, and some I’ve seen and used in the past, some are ideas spoken in passing between me and coworkers, or guildmates, or some are offered directly from folks on the forums. If I’ve been directly given a prompt from another person, I will credit them unless they do not want to. Otherwise, know some of these are gained through many means.
