the eye
"Why, what the ascended have been up to, of course." Cian answers conversationally, smiling warmly. "Their progress when it comes to relics, specifically."
Straightening, the Eye clasps his hands behind his back and gives Melita an almost apologetic smile. "I don't know about you, but this is not my first time doing this. What I have learned over the years is that at first the temptation to lie or try and deceive is simply too strong. What's worse is that even if you came right out and told me the truth, I wouldn't believe it. You can understand why, can't you?"
Cian glances over his shoulder towards Gideon, and nods once.
"Now, what Gideon is going to start with are a few small spheres of sunlight. He is going to cut off your fingertips and insert them into the skin. Think of it a bit like...needles beneath the fingertips for those of us who could feel pain like that. Of course because you can't, different measures have to be employed, but you understand."
