I sat in that cold dungeon for a little more than an hour until the Dark One came for me.
Without a word she appeared, then teleported herself and me to her study. Opening my eyes, I found myself bound in chains.
She looked at me with fury in her eyes, anger on her lips, and blood on her mind. And that's just what she got.
I lost track of how long it was. She would stop for a while then resume whenever she felt like it. I think it may have been several days before she stopped.
Maybe it was the pain or the delirium, but I admired her meticulous detail not to leave any permanent marks on my body. As to why I'm not sure.
After some time, I got some sense of rest. she returned me to the cell, still bound in chains, still hanging from the ceiling.
I didn't have to worry about death, there was none for me. Death's reapers would not come for me.
A few days passed and the only thing that was on my mind.
Was nothing. I was a blank slate.
I'm not sure when but the Dark One appeared before me.
