The Elven Battle Maiden in the Cage

The captured elven knight, Erin, was imprisoned in a damp stone cell within the human stronghold. She had once been the cutting edge of the cavalry, but now her hands were bound by heavy iron chains, and her bare feet pressed against the bone-chilling rock. Her interrogator, Thorne, told her that her body had already been reduced to auction goods, and the only thing left for her to bargain with was the angle at which she bent her knee. Erin clung to the proud soul of an elven knight, while Thorne held another bargaining chip in his hand—a younger elven girl. He intended to use the girl's safety to wear away the last of her defiance.
