The Peasant Part 6

As they guard escorted me to my cell, I spotted people in horrific pain and agony. A woman was strapped to a turning wheel wdith fire beneath it, like a spit for humans. She screeched in horror. As she came up from the other side her face was scorched and blistered. Her clothes were engulfed in flame and burned off of her body. I looked away in disgust. I heard a terrible scream from the next room and saw a man sitting on a chair. His foot was in a white hot iron boot being filled with a thick, black substance which I thought to be lead. I walked further down and I saw a man being crushed to death by a block of iron. I walked even farther and I saw a man plainly sitting in a chair. Tears flowed from his eyes, but he made no sound. I paused, and just as the guard jerked me away, I saw nails pushing their way through his arms, legs, and chest. My eyes widened.
