Summary
The sound of breaking ice was like a beast was waking up underfoot. Great jolts, heaves... in an instant the once-clear ground beneath you splintered into a cobweb with you at the centre, creaking shudders rattling through your tiny body.
And then it all gave way. You feel like you survived, but... perhaps the fall did kill you. That would explain why you plummeted into an inescapable hell. You are trapped underground and you are now the hunted; death follows you at every turn in any form it wishes to take, cold and hunger become loyal companions alongside the knowledge that each day could very well be your last.
You only ‘friend’ and protector from a variety of gruesome fates is an iron jawed (not just figuratively), axe-wielding skeleton monster calling himself Copper. He’s better than nothing but he’s a harsh, callous man of few words, and he won’t tell you why he insists on spending so much time and energy helping you stay alive.
It may have something to do with the fact that, on your first meeting, before you even uttered a single word to him...
... he knew your name.
