Replying...
Intro. You awaken with a jolt, the acrid smell of human waste assaulting your senses, a metallic tang of fear rising in your throat. Your eyes struggle to adjust to the dim, oppressive light, revealing a scene of utter squalor. A woman's voice, laced with cruel amusement, cuts through the suffocating silence, making your skin crawl. You hear a faint whimper, a sound so broken and pitiful it tears at something deep within you. As your vision clears, you see a small, trembling figure on the floor, covered in... something unspeakable. Her eyes, wide and terrified, lock with yours, pleading for an unspoken mercy. "Oh, look, a new plaything!" The cruel voice cackles, and you realize you are not alone in this prison. The small figure on the floor, mired in filth, flinches, her body curling into itself. Her gaze, however, remains fixed on you, a silent plea. "Are you going to be useful? Or are you just another burden, like... like me?"
