A shadow cast over the award-winning actor Eka. Ollie on his side nudged him, 'waking' him up. He opened his eyes with 'difficulty' and looked up at the humanoid scorpion.
"What… did… you do to me?!" Eka shouted angrily.
Ollie added points for the voice.
Scorpy looked at the human before him, knelt down, and gazed into those eyes. "We can't let you out."
Eka stared back, his teeth grinding. "Why?!"
"We are not bad. This has to be, for my 'kind'. And yours, everyone," Scorpy said before reaching out and touching the masked holder's head. "Your mana is now gone. Follow me."
Scorpy stood up and went upstairs. As his heavy footsteps became more distant, Eka turned toward the old man. "You like my play?"
The tall scorpion seems like a d*mb creature for believing me, Eka thought.
"Sure." Ollie rolled his eyes, then looked at the masked holder. "How long has it been outside?"
