She had forgotten about it, but remembered the vision now as she thought of the void.  The sheer terror, the sheer bliss, of being completely consumed by the void.  Being pumped full of corruption in all three of her sacred holes, unending terror, unending pleasure...<br/><br/><strong>"I said we have a deal!" </strong>Karin cried, snapping Lydia back from her brief reverie.<br/><br/>Glancing in the chest, Lydia saw a single sack laying at the bottom.  Along the top lid, now flung open, was the trap mechanism that fired the net at Karin though it was obviously now discharged and harmless.  A few careful cuts and Karin was free of the net, sliding out of the ripped ropes to freedom.  She snatched up the sack and offered it to Lydia, who found that her left hand, the one that had a key stuck to it, was next to useless.  Thank the gods that she'd grabbed the key with her left hand, not her right.  Her hand wouldn't even close around the sack while the key was stuck to the palm of her hand.  She could sheath her sword and take the sack of course, but Karin seemed to be co-operating and sticking to her end of the deal.<br/><br/><strong>"Just tell me which key you want me to take,"</strong>Karin said,<strong>"I was hoping to pick up some additional supplies, but now I just want to get out of here!"</strong>Like all other smart contestants, Karin was obviously terrified of an encounter with the void.  Better to be transformed into a monster girl or taken away to the abyssal realms or even meet your final fate and die in the dungeon then fall to the pure chaos of the Void.
