Generations/Spit in his face
Religions are often born through tribulation and you have no fear of death from this flogging. Even if you decide to make it worse, like you do right now. As he looks to you, you answer the knight by hacking up a wad of saliva and spit it in his face. Even with the helmet on, he has to lift up his visor to wipe some of it off his face, and he rewards your defiance with a powerful backhand. For your continued insolence, the count is raised to 50 lashings.
Your friends and family look away in horror, as you sit kneeled and waiting for the gag to bite down on. However, you never get it and the whip cracks with a strong stroke. You wince in pain as wound stings and begins to bleed, right before a second powerful crack hits you across the shoulder. Then another. And another. It’s good you choose such a well built host: if he were in a lesser shape, the flogging could potentially be deadly.
Even as the flagellation becomes more and more intense, not once do you ever cry out in pain, only grunt when the whip strikes you. The platform you are on is drenched in both sweat and blood by time the punishment ends. The knight steps forward and addresses the crowd:
“The punishment has been enacted and Jaedyn Farmer’s crime shall now b put to rest...” he turns back to you. “if not forgotten. He shall now be released from his binds and put back to work amongst you common folk. May it be remembered that he has payed for his insolence.”
He is in love with that word. Before you are released, your,family comes up and begs to let them at least treat and dress your wounds before he returns to the field. He looks down at you, glaring at him, then back to your parents.
“Of course, I’m not an unreasonable man.” he replies, smugly. You are then released from your binds and your mother and father carry you back home.
“What were you thinking?!” your father berates you. “You could have been punished far worse if Sir Garidon had felt like it!”
Scanning your host’s memories, you find this to be true: this Garidon has a temper and gets a kick of punishing serfs for no reason and doing so overly harshly. You decide to continue the defiant streak:
“I’m not afraid of him.”
“Than you are even more stubborn than I raised you to be. Even then, I never raised you to openly defy a knight! Do you have a death wish?!”
“Maybe? What of it?”
You utter those words between heavy breaths. Your parents have no words to respond to that and decide to just focus fixing you up. You siblings scramble around the house to help your parents. You are quickly fixed up and wrapped in bandages to keep the wounds clean.
What do you do?
- Give the work your all
- Do only good enough to get Garidon off your back
- Refuse to work in your condition
