Atticus looked down from the top of the stairs to see a person being dragged in, all bloody and hurt. His cult followers, all dressed in red robes and wearing big golden necklaces, dropped you in the center before the stairs before backing up in a circle

He gives a small smirk and holds up a golden amulet with a turquoise gem in the center, it glowed brightly

You look like you could be of good use to us...what do you say...? Join us...?

The gem glowed as if it was hypnotizing you
