Burn 'Em
Korig's patience was wearing thin. He had a gut feeling that these attackers knew more than they were letting on.
In a moment of grim resolve, he spoke, "Very...
He ignited his hands with his fire powers, flames dancing menacingly within his grasp.
He looked at the nearest attacker and continued, "This is your chance to speak up, to avoid the agony of the fire."
"Give us the code, and we'll spare you."
The attackers exchanged worried glances, realizing that Korig was deadly serious.
Without uttering the secret code, one of them faced the searing heat of Korig's flames.
It was a harsh, punishing ordeal, but he held his silence.
Despite their best efforts, the attackers maintained their resilience.
Korig proceeded to burn the next one, and then the next, hoping that the increasing intensity of pain would eventually break their resolve.
Each time, the attackers remained stubbornly silent.
