I awoke with a start, air filled my lungs, and darkness was all I saw. Am I blind or is it just dark? I thought. I tried to sit up but with a loud rattling clink and my movement was restricted. Panic began to fill my thoughts, my heart racing in my ribs, my mind was a whirling a vortex of thoughts. Where am I? Why am I here? What did I do? Why is it so dark? More whys and hows swirled around the inside of my skull. Then I remembered one why, I was hearing voices, from where I don't know, but my village called me a witch and sent me to jail to be beaten and tortured. I tried to get up once more and once more I lay there on the cold hard stone floor. I grabbed the chain and began to follow it and found that it was a long chain that was connected to the floor, now that I was closer to the beginning of the chain I tried once more to sit up and groaned.
