If this turns out to be good I’m gonna keep it in my back pocket for the next time I have a psych patient who really likes to creatively write (…and is also not actively detached from reality LOL)

    Theme: Prehistoric Times

    Plot: Temptation

    Hero: Clever tinkerer

    Villain: Greedy business tycoon

    Side character: Scheming courtier

    Wildcard: Fey

    I’m not quite sure how to work a business tycoon and courtier into something set in Prehistoric times, but I’m definitely intrigued on the sort of story I could come up with for this prompt.

    Thanks for sharing this! I really enjoy it, especially since I want to write more. I think I might workshop this prompt a bit cause it definitely got some juices flowing.

      I feel like it’s obvious. Georg just invented the spear, Urgug is gonna steal the idea to make a profit, and they are both obviously planning to profit in the world’s oldest currency. But it also turns out spears and such technology in general are weird fey magic. Gods forbid someone bring one of those creepy fires or wheel things into this situation!
