I think everyone has heard it. The little unidentifiable whisper. A noise tugging your thoughts in a different direction. You don't know where it keeps coming from. Your head can't turn fast enough to find the source of the noise. The type of whisper that can cause goosebumps to raise on your arms. A coldness that chills to the bones, and makes you shiver even though you aren't cold. No. It's the kind of whisper that creeps into your very soul. • • • • • • • • 'It's all in your head, love. You're alright. It's all just in your head.' He croons, stroking hear hair soothingly. It doesn't seem to be helping her any, but it was helping him. The repetition calmed him down enough to be able to comfort her. For the first time in hours she lifted her head up, acknowledging the words. Her eyes, though they met his, looked past him. Far, far past him. Seeing things he knew that didn't actually lie beyond where he was sitting. She gave him a small smile that broke his heart. 'So is everything.' Her voice sounded sad and hoarse, like she'd been screaming for hours. And with that the princess bowed her head back down. He didn't get it.

(TWs: gore, abuse, sexual abuse, cursing) Why does he still breathe? Why is he kept alive in this shadowed purgatory where time has no meaning, and screams are swallowed by the walls? His cell is a cage, his life a cruel experiment, and his mind a battlefield. Questions claw at him relentlessly: Who is he? What is he? Why does this torment exist? The walls bleed stories of others-lost souls whose cries still linger, haunting the air. His own voice has grown hoarse from endless screams, his body a canvas of scars, a map of suffering that tells no answers, only pain. Every day is a ritual of degradation, where faceless captors toy with his humanity, stripping him of it piece by agonizing piece. The only constant is the endless cycle of questions. Why him? Why the torture? What is their purpose? He clings to the faintest memories of a time before-fleeting images of warmth, love, a face he cannot quite recall. But even those are slipping away, devoured by the void growing inside him. In this relentless, suffocating darkness, where hope is a distant memory, only one question remains: When will the game end, and what will be left of him when it does?
