With his head hung low, he was clearly at death’s door, though he seemed to still cling to his last breath, However, the injuries on his body were enough to prove the brutal torment he had endured.

At that moment, Harriet could hardly contain her fury as she witnessed her friend in this miserable ate. “It was bad enough that you took him captive; why on earth would you hurt him?” she demanded.
