Hi! I'm here to leave a quick review!!
Anyway let's get right to it,
She sat in a cold iron chair in the center of a dark room. Dark figures hid behind the pillars, oozing odd, smoking gases. Faint cries of agony echoed in her head, bouncing off the walls and attacking her ears. Her numbness slowly, wore off as the little girl came to. As she awoke, a sharp pain emerged throughout her body. Suddenly, she then realized that she was strapped down to the chair; her wrist were bruised and scared. The girl began to panic, breathing heavily, her eyes darting from corner to corner. At the bottom of the steps, where the iron chair stood, a cloaked figure slowly approaches her, a large book in hand. The figure began to recite these syllables , “Fa-mu-ta-ra-ya-ku-ba.” The girl’s vision slowly becomes blurry and she struggles to stay awake. The figure hovers over her, watching her go into oblivion.
Hmm...well this was quite an intriguing prologue, its definitely on the shorter side but it manages to actually bring across some pretty intriguing points here...and do the job of a prologue pretty darn well here. It certainly managed to get my attention here.
Now one thing that I noticed which was a bit confusing about this scene was that it was kind of hard to keep track of who is being referred to as "She" and who is being referred to as the "little girl" cause the way I understand this, it looks like they are two separate characters and it sometimes hard to tell them apart...I could just be misunderstanding and they might be the same character but even in that case it sounds like two separate people in some parts so it just needs a bit of sorting out there.
Anyway those things aside, this is one of the most mysterious prologues I've run into. It does a wonderful job of bringing up tons of questions and leaving everything quite vague and mysterious to really get you to want to read on and find out what's going on here. This seems like a really cool premise here, and it certainly sounds like the type of story that I would read.
Aaaaand that's it for this one.
As always remember to take what you think was helpful and forget the rest.
Stay Safe
