The sun beats down hot on this burnt out husk of a city. Ashes and rusted metal blow through the streets. Tumbleweed rolls by, rats scurry between smoking buildings. There is no water to be seen.

I am a snake. Snakes are not regarded as important in the realm. I kill rodents and chickens.
What a sssucculnnt snack.  You are the one animal hated in the kingdom more than me. Get away from me! Come close.  No one will miss you when I eat you. You are an evil creature! My life will not end this way! Very funny, your little paws have no affect on me. How do you have no soul? Must be depressing to live so callously.  Not really, I am an animal, as are you, and we just need to survive.  My belly is empty and soon it will be full...no hard feelings. Well I can't eat you. You're too large. Maybe you could eat something else besides me. I see your little lizard friend over there but he is tough and has very little meat.  No, I think you will be good. Look what I just did. Now you can take this lizard. He wasn't tough at all. Just a fake front. Tempting, what else can you give me? I can maybe bring you some frogs.
