"Sent me? No one sent me! I was just minding my own business when.." Andinyre's sentence was cut short by a sudden backhand from a large Minotaur known as Palleon.

Blood dripped from Andinyre's mouth to the floor. The Minotaur grinned and glanced at Teilk for permission to strike again. Teilk nodded. Palleon closed his first and struck Andinyre hard in the center of his face. You could hear the crack of Andinyre's nose breaking from the next cell. Andinyre screamed in agony before giving in to the pain and blacking out.

Palleon seemed disappointed at Andinyre's low tolerance for pain. Teilk had to remind him that pounding on his head would do nothing to help wake him back up.

A cold splash of water woke Andinyre up. The blazing pain shot through his head like an arrow through its target. Andinyre looked up to see two blurry figures before him.

Teilk grabbed Andinyre by the back of his hair and pulled his face up as to make eye contact. I do not of a joking nature. "When I give you my word, I keep it. You will tell me all you know or Palleon is going to beat you with a wooden club until your head cracks at the bone, and your brains spill onto this floor. He's done it before. It's not a pleasant way to die, I assure you. So again and for the last time, who sent you?"

Andinyre stared blankly at the wall for a moment. "Do what you must."

Teilk nodded at Palleon.

Palleon picked up a medium sized wooden club. It was thick and short, much like a hammer's handle.

Andinyre closed his eyes and prayed.

Palleon beat Andinyre all over his head and face repeatedly, beating him far beyond death. Teilk kept his word. Andinyre kept nothing from within his head.

Suddenly, a Marauder guard burst through the door.

"Highlord Teilk!!! " he said as he gasped for air. "An army is approaching the south gate and it is quite large. Arkananians, Baliforians, New Thalos troops, the Althainian army..." Again he gasped for air. "They have come for Arkane my lord."
