Lords of Creation: A Time Forgotten IC

One of the humans in the front speak up: "We're not as fragile as you may think, sir. As servants sworn to Greyl and the crown we're trained to resist fear. Still, if you believe us weak, we won't stop you from blinding us. Whatever your choice, know that the soldier in the back row does not share our training."

The servants make no moves to resist the weavers, although Jakov proves to be reluctant. "I'lle punch yourrrexxy face, yaaaa..."

Later

While interactions with the undead are few, the humans mostly spend their time meditating. Even though there's plenty of food to go around, the servants fast, and spend their time in quiet prayer, almost always expressionless. Jakov is the complete opposite: He always eats his full share of rations, is frightful and aggressive to the undead, and every once in a while curses his god and the king who landed him in this situation.

The humans would find the Hive quite hospitable even while they fast, rooms and accommodations built, albeit crudely, as if expecting their arrival and the Hive itself is unusually well lit, the binding on their eyes removed as soon as they arrive to their quarters. The Weavers, as the Humans call them, are nothing short of polite in their strange way and only trouble it's "guests" for occasional questions which they scribble on bone before leaving. The surly and aggressive Jakov is only treated better by any standards, the hurried eating only prompting more food and drink brought and the rather agitated attitude only causes more of Weavers taking an interest in the poor man perhaps to his dismay. As the days their wards were permitted the Weavers do their best to bring their eight fellows to the center of the Hive before the massive hanging structure of bone where eight seats are put out before the display.
