Ain opened his eyes and what greeted him was a dark and musty room. He sat up, his head throbbed with a major headache. Where did that scum Yban put him?
When he moved his arm he noticed that there were strange patterns on his shoulders. It seemed to be some kind of symbol.
He tried to stand up but quickly realized that his feet were bound together by a tight rope.
There wasn't anything that could be used to cut it. The entire room was empty except for the lit candles on the wall. No window and Ain even had no idea where the door was.
Based on that, he had a guess. Was he inside a secret room?
There wasn't anyone at the moment so he tried to wriggle his way out of the rope. While thinking, why did Yban take him away? Also, that strength and speed that he showed during the abduction surpasses the limits of a human.
An awakener or a demon?
Ain was bursting with anxiety. Whatever was happening now was not a good thing.
