Seated inside the interrogation room, illuminated by flickering wall-mounted torches, Prince Beshar and his wife waited patiently for the prisoners to arrive.
Princess Rhiya felt a shiver run through her body and her pulse quickened as she scrutinized her surroundings.
The dimly lit interrogation room, which also served in a dual capacity as the torture chamber, was specifically designed to induce horror, dread and despair.
The torture chamber was fitted with horrifying torture devices like; brazen bull, iron maiden, breaking wheel, head crusher, pear of anguish, tong tearers, knee splitters, and chappy choppers, amongst others.
Princess Rhiya was about to say something to her husband when the door to the integration room creaked open.
Three mature-looking prisoners in grey uniforms, whose hands and legs were shackled individually were escorted into the room.
