That river in Egypt
"Please can you let me go now?"
There was a loud delay in Rennala's response. Damocles immediately sensed that he just asked the wrong thing.
"Pet, do not ask me that again. I'm telling you right now, the very next time you even hint at suggesting that you want to leave, I'm going to glue your cage shut. Not only in the keyhole so that you can never unlock it, but I'll make sure to glue the inside as well so that you won't even be able to take it off by breaking the cage. I mean it, if you even imply that you might want me to let you go, I'll do it"
Damocles was stunned, she had successfully scared the shit out of him. He wasn't sure if he believed her, but she sounded serious. Just to drive the point in, she reached into her pocket and retrieved a packet of superglue. She leaned forward and held it in-front of him so that he could see it.
"You got that Pet? Mention being set free again and you're never getting that cage off"
"...Y-yes Miss..."
He just stared straight ahead, right through the TV. He wasn't hearing the program anymore, just the thoughts running through his mind.
"Don't worry Pet. It sounds harsh now but soon you'll come to want to stay here. Just give it time"
