That river in Egypt

Rennala's grip didn't let up after the time call, the crushing agony just resumed without break or relief. Damocles was slightly kicking his legs as she squeezed. He wasn't trying to resist or escape, he just couldn't handle the pain. The longer she squeezed, the more the pain built and built. She remembered that she was supposed to be doing this for a set amount of time, so she adjusted her grip and squeezed with just one fist. With her free hand she reached around for her phone, feeling it somewhere behind her. She looked at the time and realised she wasn't sure when she statered. She had called out for 1 minute and 40 seconds, the next was 1 minute and 20 seconds later, at the 3 minute mark, whenever that was. She waited extra long just to be safe before making the call.
