Sigrún screamed out in agony and fell to the floor. Erdem tried to keep standing but the force pushed him down to his knees. It was as if something was being torn out of him forcefully. Even through the pain, he felt as though a heavy weight was being lifted from him. The pain went away as abruptly as it came. Erdem lifted his eyes to find his father staring at him with darkened eyes. There was a shadow cast over his face that scared Erdem. Suddenly his father's leeches started screaming agony, and the darkness in Krsto’s eyes changed into dread. One after another, the leeches fell to the floor.
“Hmm. That was convenient.” Krsto turned around as Anxo’s voice rang. Anxo’s eyes fell on Sigrún first, and she looked as though all the air in her had been knocked out. Anxo’s eyes shifted to Erdem, and he walked towards him.
“If I heard correctly, then you wanted answers. Right?” Anxo’s voice was cold as his indifferent eyes stared down at Erdem.
