Run Rabbit Run

Under the watchful eyes of his faithful hound; Mir Hundur and his magical staff; DijonnLiga Bur sceptically tugs on the two magical rabbit fur boots, gifted to him by Lord Urdurel. Despite his doubts though, he’s amazed to discover that the small boots readily stretch and extend to fit over his long Halfling feet. Halfling feet that now, due to their disproportionate length and sable coloured fur covering, actually resemble the long back feet of a giant Jack-rabbit!

He’d never felt the need for footwear before and had always, secretly, taken pride in the fact that, despite his smaller stature compared to his Orcish brethren, his feet had always been bigger and tougher than theirs. 

Looking down at them now though, he has to admit that they feel pretty good wrapped in the soft leather and fur. Better than good. He feels ‘springy’ for the first time in his life. 

Springier and stridier!

  1. Not sure why the type has carriage returned after the word ‘magical’. Also, does anyone have an opinion on my spelling of the grammatically made up word ‘stridier’? Should i have spelt it ‘strideier’?

    Wonder if magical boots will avoid swamp foot?
