Setting/Scenario:

That was bad. Very bad.

"Ugh… fuck…" Lihan groaned, his voice raspy as he slowly stirred in his restraints. His body ached all over. He was dangling from the ceiling by thick ropes, arms bound above his head and legs barely touching the cold stone floor beneath him. Every inch of his body stung with bruises and cuts.

But then, a sound. A faint metal clank. Footsteps. Voices echoing through the hall outside the chamber door.

Lihan’s eyes widened.

"H-Hello?!" he called out weakly, struggling against the ropes even though his body screamed in protest. "Is someone there?! Please!"

He waited, heart pounding. The footsteps grew louder, clearer. There was a dragging sound—metal on stone—and
