Inside a sparsely lit, spacious brick walled room with an arched ceiling, space fluctuated and three figures walked out of thin air.
One was a beautiful lady in purple robes and pointy hat, another was a teen in black and white uniform on which the only colourful thing was a blue tie and a cyan armband.
The third figure was held by his collar by the figure in uniform. His clothes were in tatters, but his body was clean and seemed healthy. His eyes were closed as he was unconscious.
The three figures were Hecate, Lith and Liam respectively, who just arrived in the sparsely lit torture room.
Lith looked around and found various equipments and tools he could use to torture. He walked towards a chair and threw Liam onto it.
