Name the factors of the scene, and mention everything about this scene you can.
several logs of wood set there, he fell to the ground with a groan and he lay among rolling logs.
“Look,” I said, “I am sorry, I just need to eat,” (I did not attack the welf boy then when he was down, my fatal mistake) I sniffed through my bloody nose.
The welf boy was now rising, his face looked like something you would only see on a monster, a low growl grew in his throat. I thought that the welf looked like a hairy dog, about to pounce upon prey. I was right.
With an angry growl, the welf leapt at me. I raised my arms to save myself, but he went downward and took my legs out from under me. I fell to the ground with him atop me, he began throwing clumsy but powerful blows. Till at last I lay on the ground bleeding from a dozen cuts on my face.
The welf picked up the loaf of bread and made to walk away.
“Please,” I muttered weakly, as I begged “Let me at least have the loaf!”
The welf turned to me and snorted, “My name is Brandun,” he said, “Do you know what Brandun means in the welf tongue? In welfish?”
“Justice,” I managed to say.
“Yes!” Brandun said, “Justice, justice is good. But I will be merciful,” he proceeded to return to me and forced the bread in my face, smearing the once yummy bread with my blood. He then returned it to my hand, “Let that be a lesson to you human scum,” he said in the welfan tongue and away he went.
I watched him disappeared and began to eat the bloody bread; I was hungry. It mattered not to me. What mattered was that I did not die of hunger.
