The Task

I feel to my knees, sweat pouring down my face. I felt a small prick in my neck and I slap my neck thinking it was just some kind of bug. Yet a fog seems to come over my mind, and then I watch as Mendax also falls to the ground. Black fills my mind, why the hell does this keep happening. 

As I come back to my senses, I found myself in a metal room, with massive golden ravens painted on the walls, and in front of me stood the golden boy himself, the Emperor."Hello John, only one more task till your free." Something doesn't seem right with this, all the others he said involved something."What's the catch," I watch as he just keeps standing as if to be more dramatic."First, you faced the test of strength to prove you can fight. Second was the test of wit to see if you could endure in the world. Third was the test of unity to see if you could work with people. Now the final test awaits you. The test of Survival, to see if you can do what needs to be done." 

"Really, that's all." The Emperor seems to not be holding back, but there is always a catch, but I don't want to push my luck."Yes, and if you survive, Amorin will tell you everything you need to know for the outside since you didn't listen at all the first time. You will go over the things they mention last and new things to help you in this change."

I stare at the man,"That's nice of you," I say with an almost contemptible nature remembering the purpose of why he wants me in his nation and how I'm his guinea pig. 

          Then he placed a hand on my shoulder and whispered into my ear as he injected me with a needle,"Now go to sleep."
