They're watching me. I can feel it. I can see it in their eyes when they visit, when they come with their prying inquisition, and when they turn their heads, there are eyes there, too. Every man in this place has four, five, six, seven eyes; in the backs of their heads, erupting out of their flesh, hidden by robes and hair but they're
watching. They're waiting for me to slip up.
When my Lord fell, how long was I unconscious for? What did they do to me? I can feel it. Something is not right. The rooms here breathe, not because of the chilled wind of the North Sea, but because they're living. Every brick is watching, listening. I am in the belly of a giant beast, omnipotent and omniscient, and he sees what I have done and he does not like it. He doesn't understand that what I am doing is necessary. One day the men here will turn and mouths and tongues will burst from their heads and devour me, taking me apart, tearing skin from muscle and muscle from bone. When they come I will be ready; my blood will burn their mouths and melt their insides as they sup from the viscera they create.
And what of the bells? Ringing ringing ringing ringing ringing ringing, always. Where is the silence? Why have they taken the long, interminable silences from me? The bells ring so hard my teeth shatter in my head with reverberation, blisters form on my lips, blood vessels burst like balloons. This is torture, but what more do they want? I have nothing to offer, i have nothing to offer i hvae nthing to ofer ihvngtor
