Astin woke up in a completely dark room. He tried to move his hand but was unable to do so. Not only his hands he was unable to move anything. Soon he got used to the darkness of the room and was able to see how the room looked. He tried to speak but found that there was something that was preventing him from moving any of his muscles so he was unable to even speak.
After a few minutes passed by, a door opened and someone entered the room. As Astin could not move his head he was able to see the person who entered. His senses were also dulled probably because of the same item, so he was unable to get any information about the person who entered the room. But he was especially vigilant as he had no idea what intention this person had when it entered this room. Soon he heard a very high pitch voice -
"Hia hia hia, I see that you've woken up. Good, good, very good. Congratulations you're the first person to wake up among the new batch. Marvelous."
