Daisy Duke was sitting in the dark like she did everyday. Everyday she would wake up, eat the slightly old bread and milk left for her, then sit in darkness until she fell asleep.
Sometimes she could hear horrible moans and faint screams from outside her cell. Maybe she just imagined them. She had gone ghostly pale and weak. Daisy had been like this ever since that terrible day in Terrorvale.
It was a normal day, and two strangers were passing through. A dwarf and a spaceman, she remembered. She was making armour for them. And in the reflection of the shining iron...
That face. White with red eyes. Unnatural and fear-inducing. He took her and dragged her through the portal...
And from then on, everything was the same. Coldness and darkness. And nothing she could do about it. Except wait, wait for the Heroes...
The Heroes and her Knight. Yes, her Peculier gave her hope. More thoughts of him pulled through the fog of her memory. When he bought her that bracelet. When she repaired his boots. When they visited friends in the small town. When they watched the sunset...
Daisy closed her eyes. She would salvage this spark of hope, love, even happiness. Take advantage of the light in dark.
One day, her Peculier would rescue her. Someday in the future, they would be together again.
Daisy was tired. Her frail body shifted on the floor. She let her mind slip away, thoughts of freedom remaining, but fading.
Maybe this time she slept, she wouldn't have daunting nightmares about death and darkness. Maybe she would have a silent night, even though she didn't know if it was the night. Maybe this time she slept, she would dream of light.

A/N: Based before part 36. If you've not seen Shadow of Israphel, I highly suggest you do. Its practically illegal not to. Sorry its a bit dark. ~x
Oh, and I don't own SoI or Minecraft. They belong to the Yogscast and Notch, I think.
