Trying to remember how she had gotten here, she carefully raised her head to look around her. Pain slammed into the back of her skull and she dropped her head back down with a cry.
Shivering on the icy, wet floor, she realized that she was without clothing. Again, she tried to raise her head, ignoring the pain that wracked through it.

The walls were covered in green slime and rancid water ran in yellowish streaks down to the floor to flow over and under her beaten body.
She couldn't bring to memory what exactly had happened. She remembered the flames and her mother's cries before a flash of light sent her into a dark sleep with hellish nightmares.
