A Civilized Interrogation

Min-Ah sat within her cell, on the padded bedding, which acted as the only means of furniture within her confinement. Her eyes were bloodshot, and her wrists were covered with self-inflicted scratches.

For the past seventy-two hours, the Korean Princess had been kept constantly awake via a mixture of chemical, audio, and physical stimulation. Without the slightest bit of sleep, her willpower was quickly being ground to dust.

The Agents of German Imperial Intelligence did not even need to physically torture Min-Ah. All they needed to do was apply psychological pressure, and soon enough, the woman would spill her guts of her own volition. 

The clock struck twelve, and just like every twelve hours, the door to the cell swung open, where a group of armed guards immediately bound and gagged Min-Ah. This was a necessary precaution to ensure the safety of those involved with the interrogation.
