My 100 pages of Book of a Thousand Words.
I just finished part one in my book. In the last 60 pages that I have read nothing really happens it the book. It has gone from fall to winter now and its gets so cold that it sometimes is hard for the two girls to breathe. The guards that are supposed to bring the women milk everyday have only been bringing it every two or three days because it has been so cold. It starts to begin to turn into spring, and the ice melts and the women can feel the suns heat shinning down on them. The girls can hear the guards start talking again and Dashti goes to open the metal flap and put the wooden spoon in the opening to keep it held open. All of a sudden a hand came in the opening and grabbed Dashti's hand, it was Lord Khasar. Lord Khasar thought he had grabbed Lady Saren and asked it he had his lady and Dashti replied, "No, I'm Dashti, I'm my lady's mucker maid. He let her hand go and he laughed about how he knew all about muckers. He told her to put her arm back out the hole, she didn't want to but she had to listen to him because he was a gentry and she had to do what he said. She did what she was told and and slapped her hand against the wall, she tried to pull her hand back but he said to leave it and he slapped it against the wall again. Then Lady Saren grabbed her and pulled Dashti away from the hole. He left and didn't return for days, and the two girls were very happy about that. A few days later Lord Khasar came back, he was knocking on the metal flap so they would answer him. They yelled leave us alone, all of a sudden the metal flap was torn right out of the bricks. Lord Khasar was upset and threw fire into the hole and started things on fire in the tower. The girls were fanatically putting the fire out and then threw their bucket of waste out the hole and right into his face. He was very upset and left them alone. They were so happy they laughed all night. Since the metal flap was gone they could hear the sounds of night more now than ever and they could hear howling of wolves and the guards shooting at them. Dashti went to look out the hole and a wolf was right there and almost bit her. The cat was hissing and jumped at the wolf and that's the last time they saw the cat. The girls were so depressed about it and Lady Saren kept eating all the food. Dashti was determined to find a out of there, she was watching the rats in the cellar and found that there was a hole where they had been coming in and out. She started pounding on the bricks and make a hole big enough for her to get out. She stood outside for the first time and it felt like she was reborn. She said she would get Lady Saren the next day and they would escape from the tower and go to the nearest town. Dashti was so happy that she got out of that horrible place.
