Lucian blinked feeling vaguely aware of his surroundings even as images started to cloud his vision, he could see the interior of a room, a white ceiling with strange fixtures bobbed in and out of focus when he realised that he was being carried through the corridors of the palace.
Lucian's breath went haggard as he tried to resist the cloudy images forming in his mind but the more he fought against it the more futile his battle became until he realised that it was pointless and let the images wash over him.

"That's creepy Elsie" Lucian felt himself say but his voice was so different, foreign even, and worst of all he had no control over his mouth.
