Pain... oh, the excruciating agony coursing through my body. Or perhaps it was the sensation of being confined to an unforgiving, unyielding chair, my limbs shackled by invisible chains, rendering me utterly immobile. I struggled to put into words the sheer torment I endured, for there was something more than the physical discomfort at play here.
Slowly, I pried my eyes open, my surroundings a perplexing blur. It was as if I had been thrust into a realm of shadows and obscurity, the very walls themselves rendered inky blackness. Then, an abrupt, ominous click resonated through the void, jolting my head from side to side. My mind whirled with confusion, attempting to grasp the dire situation that had been laid out before me. This predicament, whatever it may be, was one I harbored no fondness for, not in the least.
