Five
I was not in a good mood the next morning. My plan to escape from the void had failed. I had to get out of here, before I was here long enough to turn to crystal when I entered the outside world.
"Naugus," I sad to the sorcerer who was molding a piece of crystal like it was clay. "How long would you say I've been here?"
"What does it matter, Doctor? You will be here for Eternity," he replied laughing smugly. "But if you must know, it's been three months."
"And how long would you say one must live here before they turn to crystal in the outside world?"
Naugus raised an eyebrow at me. "Thinking of escape Doc-tor? Well don't count on it. But by my estimations the King and I had a few years where we could have escaped without turning to crystal."
"I see," I said. Naugus really had no idea that I had spoken with Snively the night before. A true Overlord would never sleep that soundly.
"Now then Doctor," continued Naugus. "I think it's been long enough since our last game," he chuckled. He turned my head into an anteater. "I think there are enough rodents here to keep you occupied."
