User:Zwan the river otter

Prologue
Jem the otter's sleek body cut through the water as a knife cuts through butter. He paddled hard as he thought of the hearty meal his mother would have, piping hot, for him. But as he approched his hut, he stared; no smoke, no smell, no voices. Jem broke into a run, but halted as a large mouse, almost as tall as Jem, stepped out in between him and his hut. The mouse spoke quickly "It was Fergo's horde", he lowered his eyes "they killed your family. There was nothing I could do" So began Jem's new life, revenge!
