Screwed!

Fel, relieved, gets to the giant black doors. But just as she's about to let herself out, she hears Skotos' voice again.

"After you let in the envoys, throw yourself into the Slithering beast pit.

I do not want to gaze upon your ridiculous face any longer."

"..."

Fel is left speechless, her eyes wide open in shock. 

She didn't escape death after all.

Her eyes well up with tears and her shoulders tremble with dread.

'No... no no no no! I cannot die like this. I've worked too hard. I've come so close...' her thoughts portray her feelings of devastation.

The Slithering beast pit? It contained the greatest, most voracious Slithering beasts existent in their millions.

There was no way she could possibly make it out alive.

Her head falls and her tears drop. This was such a cruel fate.
