Prison Back — Description
Not all who are taken are used for experiments. In such times of war, beings of power and standing are more useful alive than dead. Stolen knowledge and critical information is a more powerful weapon than any acid or tendril. Taking that from prisoners is worth more than turning them into simple fuel. Even when their is no information to gain, prisoners can still serve a purpose. A leader who is broken by enemy minds is more demoralizing than one slain by enemy blades. Prisoners are rare, but they are a valuable resource. So they must be bound and contained. While their breath is necessary, it brings with it danger. A living foe is one who can fight back or try to escape, so the prisons must be unbreakable. Their venom must prevent rebellion and resistance. And while a leader still lives, their soldiers shall try to free them. A stationary prison, no matter how strong, is one that can be easily found. But these ones do not dwell in the same place. They do not allow the warriors to find their beloved leader. They hide and crawl. Slithering to hidden nooks and crannies, until the call from below comes. Then they may come before the Mantled Lords, and give their burden to them. There the prisoner shall face the judgement of the Lords, and their fate shall be determined. Though they still live and breathe, many prisoners wish that they had been warped in the labs. At least death would come as a mercy....
