There were voices everywhere. I was drowning in them.
I could not tell if I was conscious or not. There was a heaviness in my eyelids which refused to let me open them when I wanted to. I felt like someone had hit me with a heavy object. Everything was heavy and hurting.
I could not move a single muscle in my body. I felt like I was strapped on to something. May be I was. It hurt so much. Something was crawling inside my blood, biting my fibres and modeling them to a new shape.
"She is ready to inject." One of the voices said. It came from directly above me, as if someone was leaning over me. I tried harder to open my mouth or eyes and failed miserably.
A sharp sting could be felt on my shoulder. At once, my whole body began to shiver and jerk, trembling as if I was having a seizure. Without even knowing, I could feel it was venomous. I wanted the liquid out of my system.
What ever it was injected in to my arm, it brought pain everywhere it went. I felt it burning a path inside me. Blood; Muscle; Heart.
As my heart rate began to speed up frantically, I tried to latch on to the consciousness I had.
I didn't know when I black out.

I woke up after sometime, feeling even worse than I did before.
This time, I could open my eyes. Though my eyelids felt like they were glued to my eyes, I could do it. A dim white light greeted me as soon as I opened them and it took me a little time to adjust to the light.
Something was not right. I felt like something had been ripped out from me. I did not know what was that, because I could still move my toes and fingers fine. But the sensation of something was gone was embedded into my bones.
Turning my face to the side still felt aching and impossible so I stared at the ceiling. There were several lights fixed on them, not glass lights. I figured that I was still in Plycin. Or mortal realm.
I was still strapped to the bed or whatever it was I was laying on. It did not feel comfortable at all, so I figured thag it was not a bed. Maybe it was a trolley, something mortals used to carry patients and stuff. I did not know if Elkelyns used the same.
Well, it didn't matter. I had get out of here as fast as I could and find Resh, Bran and Relach. If it was possible, also our stones.
I reached out with my power, searching for bio electricity. It didn't take me a long time to realise that I was the only one in here for a long distance.
Where were the others? How much time had passed?
I helplessly laid there as there was no way for me to get out of the straps. I kept searching for bio electricity as long as I can. One person was enough.
Then I felt the tug of insfi stones.
I withdrew my power at once, shocked.
