Yes, but where?

Your eyes flicker open, but you immediately squeeze them shut again, blocking out the harsh, painful light that stabbed into your retinas.

Your head pounds, each beat of your heart sending a new throb of agony through your skull. You attempt to move, but that causes your head to pound with even greater intensity, so you lie still.

You lay there for some time, trying to learn as much as you can about your surroundings without the use of your eyes. You smell wood smoke, a fire, and the you hear the sound of birds chirping, although it is muted, suggesting you are indoors.

You have just about worked up the courage to open your eyes again when you hear the sound of approaching footsteps.

Thinking quickly, you decide to pretend to be asleep. You are too weak for a fight, and they have not harmed you yet.

You hear the sound of a key turning in a lock, followed by the creak of iron hinges.

"There he is." A very deep, gruff female voice speaks.

"Wow," Another voice, this one much softer, speaks. "When Saria said big, I never thought... He's huge!"

"Indeed." The gruff voice speaks again. "He's got a few inches on me, and after dragging him up here, I'd say he is at least a hundred pounds heavier."

"How did you capture him?"

"We used the rope trick, but we couldn't fully restrain him. In the end I had to just club him over the head."

"Do you think Saria is right? Does he have the favor of one of the five?" the softer voice asks quietly.

"I doubt it, he's got no magical talent to speak of. Honestly, the skinny one downstairs is more likely to be sponsored than this one."

"Well, that's reassuring."

You hear footsteps away from you, but they stop after only a few footfalls.

"You coming?" The gruff voice asks impatiently.

"No" The soft voice replies. "I think I'll stay and watch the prisoner for a while."

The gruff voice snorts derisively. "I cannot fathom how you enjoy fucking those brutes. Just be sure to lock him back up when you are done."

With that, the footfalls resume, and you hear a door slam shut.
