Five Minute Plot

Divied up into the four main quadrants...

Part 1

Kray was a devoted husband and father. The year's crops had been bad, and there was little food for him and his family. It wouldn't belong before they starved. Kray's wife asked him to go look for work in the far country. Unable to provide for his family otherwise, Kray packed some things and departed.

Part 2

Traveling far, Kray found a village where workers were needed. Taking whatever jobs he could, he was able to earn enough to send some provisions back to his family by way of a messenger. He wrote tat he would need to work a while longer if they were to have enough to last until the next season.

Part 3

As Kray was preparing to return home to his wife and son, a messenger arrive with word that raiders had attacked his home village. Some people there had survived, but his wife and son had been killed. Kray cursed himself for not being there to protect them.

Part 4

Kray returned to his home village with the provisions he had gathered together. With no family left to care for, he did what he could to help his neighbors rebuild their homes, as the raiders had burned much of the village when they attacked. Once the rebuilding was completed, Kray went off to join the local militia. He was determined that no other innocent family should share the fate of his own.
