Throwing the unconscious intruder into a crudely made prison cell, the disciples quickly left to resume whatever ritual they had gathered for. The tunnel went dark as the light from their simple oil lamps followed them and since they never bothered to look behind no one noticed the yellow eyes gleaming in the darkness of the cell.“How cruel…” the shadow murmured. “They didn’t have to be so rough…”The shadow extended forming what vaguely resembled a hand. Once the darkness settled, a faint green light began emitting from it gradually enveloping the restrained young man. A few seconds later the bruises from the beating he got slowly faded.Though he wanted to heal him back to health, the faint sound of footsteps heading i

 It wasn’t too difficult to guess that the men in black weren’t careless enough to not lock the cell which could only mean one thing, someone is trying to help him escape. Whoever it is, they came here, cut the ropes tying his arms and left the cell open before leaving. But if that was really the case why didn’t they wake him up? Is it because this is all the help they could offer him? This place is filled with cultists.

A couple of minutes later Drake and Rollo found an opening in the wall that was clearly man made. Everything was silent so they peeked inside out of curiosity. As it turned out the opening led to a wide room illuminated by something in the corner.
