"Lies, lies, lies!" He called out, his words echoing in the small cell all of a sudden. "You, you knew how to get in here. You came to torment my captivity! I will make you pay. You won't leave until I am done with you!" Her hands became stained, though her face was cleaned. The shadow of a person moved closer "For eras, patterns... all eternity!" There was a silence as the echo of eternity went from one side of the room to the other, slowly escaping through the small opening "...I've been trapped here and you think I will believe that you do not know of a way out of this living aeternia?" He floated closer to her.
"If you will not tell me a way out, I shall feed on your life, your happiness... until you do tell me!" His incorporeal hands reached out and went effortlessly through her chest. Rae'vyn could not back up any further; She was up against the wall already. As his cold, ghastly hand passed through her, she could feel the energy being sapped from her body. The only thoughts that began to remain in her mind were those of the times she had fallen down and hurt herself. The times when people she had cared about had left. She couldn't recall how people had tended her after her accidents or how people had returned to love her tenfold when they did leave. All she seemed to be able to recall, as time went by, was how things were utterly horrible in her life and how everything never went her way.
He pulled out his hand, slowly floating away backwardly into his corner. He was grinning, she could tell. "Life. A lie in a place like this, but a lie that'll keep you alive." He was finally not being gloomy or yelling, but Rae'vyn was feeling like it. The good was slowly returning to her again, but she felt weakened. "You want to escape this place? Then you will tell me how and only then will I let you." He was assuming a commanding voice. He seemed more confident.
"Otherwise, I might just have to..." He breathed life into some embers that Rae'vyn had only just noticed, causing a small fire and revealing an iron rod "...get somewhat more physical with your pain and anguish." He was starting to sound sadistic and was getting closer to the gloomy part again, but for Rae'vyn, whilst she was recovering and regaining her positive memories and thoughts, she would take a bit longer to recover.
"Are you going to tell me the truth or will you continue to tell me lies?"
