Xune Vvedryx
As Xune works at the ties that bind her, she watches the other woman. Her quick, panic filled movements soon abate and she lies still for a long while. Then she manages to get upright, leaning against the wall between shelves. Slowly and methodically, she moves her head up and down against the edging of the shelf until the blindfold is removed. Steel grey eyes glare like daggers across the room. Her eyes shift quickly, taking in everything. Minutes pass, then an hour. Xune continues working at the bonds. Thirst becomes an issue. Dehydration begins draining the body of energy. [Private to Xune Vvedryx: CON reduced to 11][Private to Myshra Knowles: CON reduced to 15 ]
A rattling of chains at the door brings eyes front. A shadow can be seen between the small cracks in the wooden door. A heavy bar slides from the door and lands heavily on the ground outside, then the door opens. A robed man with a thin stature enters. The robe is black dyed wool and dusty. The bottom coated in mud. He wears wire framed spectacles, has thinning hair at the top, and long black locks elsewhere. His nose seems oversized for his small framed face.
"Aaaahhhhh. Heh heh heee. You wake at last", he wheezes at the human woman. Then he looks over at the dark skinned elf. "Both of you. Brutto was sure he had accidently killed you my friend. No, I said. She will live, I said." The man comes closer, and closer still with a smile revealing broken, yellowed teeth. "You don't see... but you will. You'll see... I see Her in you." His voice is grating and reedy; his breath rancid with an odor of fermentation. He stands and spreads his arms. "OH JUBILANT JOYOUS SOULS. The time is nigh."
He turns, giving the human woman a thoughtful glance, then walks out. The bar is replaced and chains rattle again before the clicking of a lock is heard. A few seconds later, the reedy voice is overheard saying, "Get the pyre finished, then throw some food and a waterskin to the elf."
