The Last Fire Sprite - Episode 1
Tristan Jimenez for The Huntsman
The Huntsman is a gravelly brute who hunts magical creatures and sells them on the Black Market. He's a hardened criminal who finds joy in what he does. He's always smiling with his metallic jaw.
(You've trapped a Fire Sprite in a glass jar. She tries to burn her way out to no avail.)
Ah, ah. I wouldn’t do that if I were you. Don’t wanna burn through your oxygen supply.
(She asks, horrified, “Why are you doing this?”)
(You’re thinking about how much money she’s gonna make you when you sell her.)
Man’s gotta eat, little flame. And you’re gonna keep my belly full for a very long time.
(You've agreed to sell the Fire Sprite to a high-paying client. He's eager to see his prize.)
You in a hurry or something? I still haven’t gotten my money.
(he refuses)
I need to at least see it.
(You flash your metallic grin)
You know, to check your credentials.
