#Chapter 183 – Bastien Meets his Cellmates
Bastien
It’s dark when I wake – the pitch black of a windowless cell, the air cold and damp. I know I’m underground without being told, and even before I remember the events that led me to this place, I know something is horribly wrong.

I circle the cell, smelling every corner of the space and trying to gain my bearings. It’s a cramped space lined with bars of pure silver, boasting nothing whatsoever to support human life. There are no objects present – no furniture, not a bucket for waste or vessel for water, nothing.
