I'm going to die tomorrow morning.
That's what the Inquisitors tell me, anyway, when they visit my cell. I've been here for weeks--I know this only because I've been counting the number of times my meals come.
One day. Two days.
Four days. A week.
Two weeks.
Three.
I stopped counting after that. The hours run together, an endless train of nothingness, filled with different slants of light and the shiver of cold, wet stone, the pieces of my sanity, the disjointed whispers of my thoughts.

This sounds so intense! And I am curious about how this person ended up in the cell and what will happen next.

It's an opening that does make me want to keep reading but it looks like a fantasy which I don't read much of so would need to know more about it before continuing.
ReplyDeleteI would hate to be in prison and have my freedom completely taken away! I literally cannot imagine anything worse, especially when you know death is waiting for you, rather than release! I do like the sound of the beginning because I definitely want to know more! Thanks for stopping by :) Have a good week!

Sounds a little depressing, but the opening makes me want to know more about this character. Why is he going to be executed? Will it happen? What led up to this scene?
