Sylvia knew that she was not really there and he was simply saying these things to her.
She understood what he was trying to do. She imagined herself being back in that hopeless desolate place... but suddenly...
She felt pressure on her legs and her wrist that made her body shudder.
She was only trying to imagine things but she felt as if something was really weighing her down, her wrists and legs cuffed.
She could feel the old high council mage gazing at her, touching her hair and feeling her skin.
Sylvia screamed. All her composure was in a second shattered.
She screamed loudly at the top of her lungs and she opened her eyes, no longer wanting to go through with the plan.
She tried to open her eyes but she couldn't see. Everything around her was dark.
"NO. No. No. Stop this." She shouted, begging Roman to stop whatever he was doing, but the man's voice only unapologetically answered her pleas.
