The Quest of Merlin

"I opened my eyes. I blinked. I was in a cage suspended in mid air.
There were no bars however. Neither was there a rope to suspend me. It seemed I was on a platform. I groaned. Where was I? Other platforms surrounded me, each one holding a silhouette of a person. They all seemed unconscious. My cheek was against the hard stone tiles of this stone platform , Like someone had just thrown me here. My hands were tied and so were my feet. My ankles and wrists were bleeding. I had cuts on my face and bruises on my legs and arms. There were few torches lit on the walls. I tried to roll over onto my back and I then sat up,I Leaned forwards to look over the edge of the platform."
