Chilliness wakes me when the freezing water drops on my head and trickles down my cheek. Its tracks dry out fast in a weather as algid. When I open my eyes, I find myself lying with my chest facing downwards on a stone cold ground covered in aggregates.
I look at my body as I push myself up from the ground——There are garments on my body, yet there are no shoes on my feet… Where am I? I give my surroundings a cautious sweep of glance trying to observe the environment, only to find myself engulfed by darkness…
The orange flame of the torch alone dimly lights my surroundings. It softly wavers when I hear a weak gasp near me. When I turn to the direction where I hear the gasp coming from, I see an enormous bell-shaped cage.
