Sunlight streamed through the opening in the ceiling. The light landed upon a column in the center of the room. Chained to the pole was what seemed to be the remain of a body, burned to a fine charred crisp. Suddenly, the remain started moving. The charred flesh started to appear like regular flesh, the ghoulish pallor becoming visible. Hair started sprouting from the skull, long, dark waves forming. The body started to pant heavily as if to catch its breath. .Its head jerked up and its eyes shot open. It looked around highly confused and still panting. Suddenly, its breathing stopped as it took a gasp. They lifted up one of their shackled hands closer to their face. The being stared at its hand in the sunlight, seemingly awestruck. Tears began to form in its eyes. It seemed as if they were seeing themselves in the sunlight for the first time.
Sonja stood up, finally out of her trance.
