What's stopping the Screaming Gallery from, like, just talking. I imagine the initial mind-numbing horror of being stitched to dozens of bodies to make up a living, writhing carpet of faces wanes a bit after a few centuries. Like you're not having a good time by any means, but you'd probably normalize it a little after awhile and I can't imagine you'd be shrieking non-stop at that point.
So what's stopping one of the guys from being like "I actually think Malcharion is raising a salient point" or going "ha ha good one Sevatar" while the Kyroptera is meeting?
Probably somebody in power armor stomping on your face until you shut up. I think I answered my own question.
