Reading Notes: Tales of a Parrot B

A short bit of notes since i set up most of my story yesterday, sorting through the second half of the stories for one i like.

the third story will be the nobleman who concealed a snake in his sleeve. this story is one of being taken hostage but, in the end, destroying their captor.

most of these stories will be minimally changed besides being shortened considerably. this ends with the woman being killed but that would be a kind of terrible end for the story. i'll just have her be rescued by a search party and the crow can tell them all of the whereabouts of her captor.
