The more Elisa lifted her arms and legs in refusal, the bolder the guard threw her around onto the table. It was not before long she felt herself tied to the stone table. It felt rather chilly agianst her back, making her shiver slightly. When the chanting began, Elisa tried to turn her head around to see what was going on in the temple. For a long time, it just remained calm and quiet, except for the low voices of the old men. The sound of crumbling rocks down a hollow cave came closer and closer, up until a roar filled the empiness. [i]"A.. Dragon!"[/i] She could feel the warm breath of the creature ooze down on the stone table, slightly making her chill disapear. But not for long.. A huge pupil filled her eyesight and as he spoke Elisa let out a slightly cry. Her eyes were squinting to keep her tears inside and she turned her head to the other side. As his low, deep voice started to fill the temple once more, a tear ran down her cheek and she lifted up her head. "Is-Is that a trick question? Because if I intent to accept my death, you wouldn't be very amused, and eat me whole without hesitation. If I kept strungling, I'd actually give you what you want and live slightly longer but not by far long enough. What's in it for me?" With a deep sigh, Elisa let down her head once again after she spoke, and closed her eyes. "Look at me, debating with a dragon.. What a joke.." She mumbled softly, but surely noticeable.
