  Chapter 16: Spiritual Torment – Garmosh’s Monstrous Revelation

  Scene 1: The Bloodstained Throne Hall

  Garmosh stands proudly before the knights in the throne hall and begins to speak.

  Garmosh (with a deep, prideful voice):

  "Do you see, Knights of Light? This is what happens when a curse merges with science... when you understand pain and reshape it."

  Hanto (raising his sword):

  "What do you mean by that?!"

  Garmosh (with a faint chuckle):

  "Do you want to know the secret... before you take your final breath?"

  ---

  Scene 2: The Unveiling of Crimes

  Garmosh claps his hands, and suddenly a massive magical field appears in the sky, displaying live images as if broadcasted from another dimension.

  Lorina (shocked):

  "What is this...?!"

  Kain (muttering):

  "It's like we're seeing a parallel world..."

  Scenes are shown of a destroyed kingdom named Norval. Its people are chained with ethereal bonds, subjected to “spiritual torment”:

  – Separation of soul from body

  – Drowning it in memories of pain and betrayal

  – Fusing it back into deformed bodies

  Hakora (screaming):

  "He's tearing them apart while they're still alive!"

  Garmosh (with demonic coldness):

  "The people of Norval? They were just insects crawling on my land. I taught them the true meaning of immortality… the immortality of suffering."

  Scene 3: The Watching Victim

  In the vision, the magical field’s view zooms in on a deformed-faced woman. She looks directly at the knights through the dimension and whispers:

  Woman:

  "Help us... we're still screaming... even after death..."

  The magical field collapses suddenly.

  Scene 4: The Peak of Confrontation

  Raigar (eyes blazing with fury):

  "You bastard… we will shatter your world before you spread it any further."

  Garmosh:

  "You will be the next experiments."

  ---

  Scene 5: A New Vow

  Hanto (looking at his sword and gripping it tightly):

  "This war is no longer between good and evil... but between humanity and monstrosity."

  Kain:

  "We won’t just be heroes... we’ll be the vengeance this world deserves."
