*The frail man's brow furrows, and his eyes open wide...
"What?!
Do you take me for a fool?!
It's one thing when I'm distracted from my work to be mistaken,
but it's another to mistake the Master's voice.
Who are you intruders?
Quickly, answer! I won't tolerate any mincing of words."
As the man's body shifts while he's speaking, the chains on his legs chink against the large ancient table. *
