It seems you have a benefactor.

You hear the sound of small footsteps approaching, and you once more hear the sound of an iron hinge creaking. A second door.

A Cold, smooth object is pressed to your lips, and liquid begins filling your mouth. You sputter, thinking the fluid poison. You feel silken hair brush your face, and hot breath on your ear as the owner of the voice leans in to whisper in your ear.

"Relax, I'm here to help you."

She smells of warm blood and spiced wine. Her words calm you, and you drink deep.

Once you have finished drinking, she says: "The potion will take effect soon, by that time I will be gone. It will suppress pain, but you won't be invincible. It should last about an hour, use that time to escape. This boon does not come free. There is another being held here, by the name of Lysander Maxos. You must free him."

Her presence pulls back, and you hear her walking towards the door.

"Thank you." You croak quietly.

Her footfalls stop.

"My debt is paid. I hope to never see you or that witch again."

before you can ask what she means, the door slams shut, leaving you alone once more.
