The first thing i felt was teeth, human jaws sinking into my torso, trembling, twisting, tearing, before clamping down and ripping free a chunk of my flesh.
Of course, this was the rational way of describing it, for the thought accompanying that moment could only be translated to pain.
My eyes shot open because of an onset of immediate, excruciating pain, but I couldn't move; I could only scream.
My body had been bound by thin leather ropes.
And yet i could feel people around me, people I had trusted, laughing, laughing while my body trembled violently beneath their faces, distorted into gleeful smiles.
Some made snide remarks as they ate, like connoisseurs grading an exotic meal.
The first person I registered was Thirio, sweet, thoughtful Thirio who swallowed the piece of flesh he had just torn out of my form.
His eyes were wide, his smiling mouth smeared with my black blood. He appeared a bit shocked, and he had every reason to be.
