"What is going on?!" I scream.

"Amma calm yourself." Amaka says.

"Calm?! You saw those things attack us. They're not creatures of this world." I say.

I turn and grip the bars. These things were a kind I had never seen before. He was right when he said they were monsters. They all have the eye. They came for us. They came for us all. They took us and brought us to this forsaken place. It's terrifying. 

"I bet you're wondering why you're here." A raspy voice says.

We turn. I see another blue song limping towards us. His eyes were yellow, and he had one horn. He smells foul like everything in this place. Yet, he is talking, and he looks in better shape than most of these creatures. 

"Who- what are you?" I ask.

"I don't remember." He pants out.

"Why did you bring us here?" My sister Iliko asks.

"You are the heart of this game." He pants out.

"What?" Iliko and I both ask.

"The first of your kind created the eye from the blood of both of our fallen warriors." He gasps out.

I turn to Amaka.

"Is what this thing is saying is true?" I ask.

"Yes." She nods.

I let out a breath. I pull my hair. My heart tightens as sweat drops from my face. 

"And now... the Dark One wishes to give you a gift." He draws an eye symbol. 

He turns and walks to the giant pit. 

"Pssst." A voice says. 

I turn.

"You're here." I say.

"Yes. Yes, I am." He says.
