As Isiah emerged from the device that had transported him and his companion Eiajr to their destination, he was overcome with a wave of intense pain.
He collapsed onto the ground, his serpent friend draped across his lap. The pain was all-consuming, and for a few moments, he couldn't think of anything else.
Eventually, he managed to open his eyes, but all he could hear was a cacophony of noise that filled the air around him. It was loud and disorienting, and he felt a sense of fear rising within him.
As he tried to make sense of his surroundings, he realized that there were people all around him.
He felt a surge of panic as he struggled to understand where he was and what was happening. He forced his eyes to focus, and after a few attempts, he managed to get a clear view of his surroundings. To his relief, he saw that he was still in the same place where he had been transported.
