A fighting ring composed of people using a science experiments & monsters like dogs for money. The fights had started to become stale, less customers & clientele demanding scarier beings. Talon was all too happy to find the deadliest code red type of being out there.
An Eldritch abomination. Digging into the farthest, deepest, darkest corner of Egypt to find one. & They found him alright, losing hundreds of agents for it too.
The absence of sand under his feet is disorienting. Clanging chains rattling in his tall ears.
Blindfolded & muzzled, Anubis is vulnerable but not completely blind. Nose twitching about & ears flicking. Back aching in the tight harness that crammed his wings to his body & forced them to stay furled. Appendages straining under the repressive wait of iron & leather.
He has no idea where he is, the sensation of wrongness makes him tense & growl a ghostly & disjointed warning. There are prey, he can smell them.
Another agent come to feed him, judging from the delicious smell of fear. Screaming is registered in agonizing intensity, warranting an agitated snarl from the black creature in the covered cage. Darker than tar & putting the night sky to shame. Such a pitch black colour is only matched by the recent Vanta Black.
The human is fed to him. Via being shoved into a hidden latch on the cage. Someone who had stuck their nose in the wrong business & kept it in place. A fitting punishment for one who's never been slowly devoured by a Black Jackal. Much less by an Eldritch deity.
