--------Begin Transcript-------
Claw: What happened?
Dandrun: When? The first scream?
Sweet: Yes. Start there.
Dandrun: I mean I heard it. Everyone heard it... Scar's guy... We hear screams in here all the time. You get used to them. (inaudible) sometimes you even start to like them (inaudible).
Claw: You liked this?
Dandrun: I mean, not what happened. Just the scream was so high and from the soul. It was so exciting.
Claw: Exciting? It aroused you?
Dandrun: Sorry. Sorry. Umm. It was just so different and (inaudible). Obviously what happened was umm... you know. Quite bad. I was supposed to feel bad, right?
Sweet: Mr. Dandrun, we're not interested in how you felt about what was happening. We want the facts.
Dandrun: (inaudible)
Claw: Pull yourself together, maggot. What happened when you got to the room the scream came from.
Dandrun: Tellwar forgive me.
Sweet: You know that religion is banned. But we're going to let that pass. You seem agitated. Relax for a moment.
[recording pauses]
Claw: Long enough. Let's go.
Dandrun: (inaudible) She had a tentacle and it was stuck deep into one of Scar's associates. A long vein or root. I'm not sure. And... It was sucking from him. And making her grow. She was monstrous... gorgeous.
Sweet: What was your vantage point?
Dandrun: I... I was standing at first... then kneeling. Just outside the room. Looking in. I mean me and Celeste, we always go when there's a... a problem in the rooms. But never like this. She was so alive.
Claw: Who? Who? Why do you call it she?
Dandrun: An elf. From Aardehn. The others we have called her Aveenda. She was changed from how I saw her before though. (inaudible) it was... beautiful. Celeste was there. Scar and her other guys were there watching. I just knelt at the door. It was so exotic and... I'll never forget (inaudible).
Sweet: Get your hands back on the table!
Claw: Now filth.
[thumping sound] [recording paused]
Dandrun: [sobing sound]
Claw: We don't care about your perversions. I'll put you up for auction in Drahinzi if I don't get a straight answer.
Dandrun: (inaudible) I mean...Ok. I mean... The creature yelled it was going to kill Scar--well it called her the cycle breaker-- but it was looking at Scar for sure. And then... then Celeste and Scar yelled at each other. I think Scar thought Celeste set her up. But there's no way on that. Celeste would never. She wanted to--
Sweet: So this Celeste. She's like you? Employed here?
Dandrun: Uhh... not like me. But yeah. And this was her last night here.
Claw: So there's a huge creature, sucking the blood out of Scar's fucking guy, and these two argue?
Dandrun: No no... It was quick. Like Scar accused Celeste and...and Celeste said no. And Scar said prove it.
Sweet: Prove it. How so?
Dandrun: She wanted Celeste to fight the creature.
Claw: Oh? And did she?
Dandrun: Yes... (inaudible). Oh, yes she did. It was majestic...
Claw: Get your hands back on the table!
