...
Cane would awake in a strange room- four gray stone walls surrounded him, and a stone floor, with a clear glass ceiling showing various stars and galaxies above. It would be almost beautiful, if not for the circumstances.
The room itself was mostly featureless, just the four walls with no decor... And seemingly no exit?? There was also a bit of blood splattered across the stone.. Kind of all over the place and seemingly random.
Cane sat against the back of the room, up against one of the stone walls. His wrists, ankles, and neck were handcuffed tightly to the wall, not giving him much wiggle room whatsoever.
There was a man in the room. With black hair and green highlights- shaved on one side with an intricate pattern. Their eyes were dark voids, besides one pinprick of white, glowing light. He wore a flowing open robe, green pants, and green dress shoes. His body was riddled with red scars-.. Burns, maybe? His right arm was bandaged up and shaking slightly. His outfit looked pristine though.
As Cane stirred, he looked over with a hostile expression. He held his shaking right hand out toward Cane's head as he walked toward him.
"Honufi ser." He said. His voice sounded like the final voice that was chanting in his head before he vanished.

Cane's golden orbs flickered several times as he tried to adjust his vision to his new surroundings. Normally, he would have liked to shake the cobwebs from his head, or even give his skull a rub to soothe the gray in his vision, but for some reason, he found himself unable to do either. In fact, the slightest amount of movement was unavailable to him.
At the mention of his surname, he came to a little more quickly, but that did not ease his confusion any. One thing was immediately made clear: he was no longer on his home planet. There was only so much he could take in, process and make assumptions about before his vision caught a hand reaching out to him.
"...Where am I?" That seemed like a good place to start.

(Really great roll from jd)
7:55 PM
"Aink pilarians." The man spoke and placed his hand upon Cane's head. His grip was somewhat forceful and he pushed Cane's head back in to the stone wall. A shot of electricity went through him- it ached and felt like it was circling around his mind. The man removed his hand, which was now trembling from exertion of his powers.
"Now that you can understand, allow me to repeat myself, the home of the Pilarians." @Scream | Cane + Uly

Scream | Cane + Uly 11/9/2023 7:59 PM
Well, that was quite rude. A grunt of discomfort left his mouth, distorted by the mask but still audible.
A part of him wished that some things were not so audible.
"Pilarians?" This was more a question to the universe rather than the person that was interrogating him. Assuming this hostage taker was telling the truth, that just brought up more pieces of a puzzle left unfilled. "What business do I have with the Pilarians."

Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽 11/9/2023 8:01 PM
"Nothing personal." He said. "As neighbors to the Galleons you must be quite aware of our host's... Proclivities. Chaos, drama, bloodshed.. All things my master has decided you may be able to provide during this event." @Scream | Cane + Uly

Scream | Cane + Uly 11/9/2023 8:02 PM
"So now I am my brother's keeper?" Cane retorted when the Galleons were brought up. At the mention of bloodshield, his head tilted slightly, as far as the bindings would allow. "You are sorely mistaken if you think I am Galleon."
@Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽 11/9/2023 8:05 PM
"I said neighbor to... I am aware of your kind's agreement with those brutes." He hummed. "Those galleons are quite cruel.. Everything they've done to our gracious host.. Very, very uncalled for.." @Scream | Cane + Uly

Scream | Cane + Uly 11/9/2023 8:08 PM
Cane continued to stare at the mysterious figure. With a mask of his own, it made reading him quite difficult, but if one thing was for certain, it was that no sympathy radiated from his person.
"And you believe this is my fault?"
@Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽 11/9/2023 8:10 PM
"You are a poor listener. Perhaps that mask is blocking your ears." The man huffed. "You take everything quite personally. Can a man not complain about those who destroyed his gods so cruelly..?" @Scream | Cane + Uly

Scream | Cane + Uly 11/9/2023 8:12 PM
"Can you not do that without abducting me from my abode?" Cane countered. "I find it hard to believe that you needed to bind me to a wall in order to vent your frustrations."
@Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽 11/9/2023 8:14 PM
"I cannot, actually. My master was quite insistent about bringing you here. Said something about there being too many humans invited....." He said. "But, regardless, you are here now. The only way you will be leaving is by your corpse floating in to the abyss." @Scream | Cane + Uly

Scream | Cane + Uly 11/9/2023 8:16 PM
Cane blinked.
"So you are going to kill me to get back at the Galleons. I am not too sure about you, or your master's, plan."
@Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽 11/9/2023 8:22 PM
"Must everything be about you and you alone? Your death, along with most of those of the other guests, will mean nothing to the Galleons. It is merely entertainment for our host.. And once the Pilarians have been revived, they will have their revenge on those heretics. Total and complete destruction is the only suitable punishment. If you perform well, maybe we will consider not destroying every surrounding planet as well for their complacency." @Scream | Cane + Uly

Scream | Cane + Uly 11/9/2023 8:26 PM
Now things were starting to take a turn. Cane once again wanted to shake his head as if this were some sort of bizarre dream or hallucination, but the bindings still prevented him from waking himself up. Abduction, murder, terrorism, those were somehow smaller threats compared to the claim that this person was going to revive the Pilarians. How they hoped to accomplish that, Cane would be lying if he said he was not intrigued, but the better part of him still believed that this entire thing was very...Unserious.
Still, if they had the ability to abduct him, who knows what else they could do.
Cane simply reserved himself to stare back at his 'gracious host'. With each sentence that left their mouth, he found himself chasing more answers only to be rewarded with more threats.

"What..? So frightened for the glorious return of my master that you can't even bring yourself to speak? Tsk, tsk, tsk.. They'll prefer you that way anyway. Nice and silent." Rakin smiled. "They find the droning of other species quite grating. Useless babble." @Scream | Cane + Uly

Scream | Cane + Uly 11/13/2023 3:57 PM
"Fools talk, wise listen." Cane answered calmly.
@Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽

Mads|Madison📱+Aldreda🔥+NPCS👽 11/15/2023 12:11 PM
"Hm. I suppose. My master doesn't speak at all." Rakin hummed. "Anyway. If you do not have any further questions or concerns, I can get a move on with my speeches. There are many others to speak with."
Sparks of electricity began to come off his bandaged hand. @Scream | Cane + Uly

Scream | Cane + Uly 11/18/2023 2:03 PM
Others?
Cane simply stared back at Rakin, his line of sight briefly trailing to the electricity before reverting back to eye contact.

Rakin went up to Cane and placed his hand on his head, sending a bolt of lightning through his head. It promptly knocked him out. @Scream | Cane + Uly
