“They are crushed and beaten down. The hapless fall prey to Eurylae’s strength.”
I unlock their cell doors and start leading them towards the exit. The way out is blocked by flames, but I'm not afraid. I'll find a way to get us through safely.
Suddenly, one of the prisoners grabs me from behind and holds a knife to my throat. "If you want to live," he growls, "you'll take us with you."
I don't have a choice. I nod my head and start leading them towards the exit. I don't give up. I keep searching for a way through until finally… success. We make it out alive and run for our lives.
I don't have a choice. I nod my head and start leading them towards the exit. The way out is blocked by flames, but I can see a way through. I start pushing through the crowd of prisoners, but they're slowing me down. The prisoner with the knife starts cutting into my skin, and I can feel the warm blood trickling down my neck.
Finally, we make it to the other side of the flames. I collapse on the ground, exhausted from all that's happened. The prisoners are free now, but at what cost?
