Trigger Warning: Don’t worry, it’s NOT rape.
Rather, it’s literal mention of shit (it’s part of the enemy torture). Anyway, it’s gross, so be warned. Try not to skip the chap though cuz’ I wouldn’t be writing a summary in the comments for this one.
Just don’t read while you’re eating. LMAO

Limestone Caves, 40 Minutes before the Declaration
"Whwowar you?!" Penko yelled through the fabric, ignoring the piercing pain in his body. However, his yell pushed the fabric deeper in his throat, giving him a more intimate taste of the fabric. He coughed loudly in disgust but it was tied to him and he couldn’t do anything about it—not when all his appendages were broken.
It took several bouts of coughs before he managed to tilt his head to look closer at the attackers. Belatedly, he realized they were familiar faces!
It was those men from the what’s-it-called? Terran Mercenary Team! They were strong and were all elementalists!
They dared attack them so openly?! Aren’t they afraid to be hunted down by their mercenary team?!
Inuk had a similar reaction. Unlike Penko who was more reactive, Inuk had a bit more of a leveled head despite being drowned in pain. He tilted his head to the side and bobbed his head, trying to use the momentum to get rid of the fabric.
It was to no avail of course and seeing his efforts another enemy (Mao) even stuffed another one in his mouth so it got as wide as it could be—filled with disgusting fabric.
His eyes were red as he glared at the men, cursing them through muffled yells. This earned him a couple more kicks to the stomach, and the reflex was to gulp and cough so more of the smell and the solid came in.
Inuk badly wanted to vomit and his body gurgled puke, filling up his mouth with the disgusting bile. It got so much he choked with a bit leaking out through the fabric.
"Eeh, gross," Mao said as he looked at the paling face of the aborigine, proceeding to kick the other one’s stomach.
BANG!
Gurglegurle—
The other one also vomited and Mao cringed, body wiggling as if ice was just placed at the back of his neck.
Eagle sighed and shook his head. "Stop playing, it’s almost time."
"Ah, yes, yes," Mao said and along with the others they either dragged or kicked the slave drivers in one place for better ’management’.
As such, the two dozen or so slave drivers were lined up neatly on the floor, surrounded by the slaves they tortured.
There were hundreds of slaves there so they naturally couldn’t fit in one cavern, but they cooperated in a way among themselves—allowing people to look at the poor state of the men in turns.
They might not be able to hurt them physically, but after some experimentation they could still exact a bit of petty revenge. Most who passed spit on them. Some even peed and some shit directly on them.
"Ah, I held it back for too long it’s black now!" One said, literally shitting on a person’s face. He targeted this Terran a lot, and it was obvious he had been tortured during his stay there. The former slave driver could only scream as—
"Too graphic! Too graphic!" Mao yelled, effectively cutting the imagery.
Anyway, it was all very disgusting but the Alterans just let them be. They couldn’t imagine how much these people suffered during this time. They must want to do more, but this was all they could do, and they would give it to them.
Sammy sighed. "Too bad they couldn’t torture them any other way."
"Seeing them eating my shit is good enough," one of the slaves next to him said. The others nearby nodded in agreement. "Thank you so much for rescuing us."
"Meh, Bright is our ally, but we won’t go out of our way unless it has advantages for Altera," Eagle humbly said with a smile, looking around them. "Like this place."
The slaves smiled lightly, some still chewing on the small pieces of bread given to them—trying to make them last as long as possible—while some sipping the water bit by bit.
"There should still be some more inside," Chris said. He knew these two must’ve come from somewhere, but seeing that there were no slaves coming out of that direction, he decided to take a look himself.
He was a scout so it wasn’t difficult to trace where they just were.
After a few minutes, he found the two half-naked women on the floor.
The two women’s eyes widened as they walked closer to get a better look. Penny outright sobbed again at the sight of them, heaving, shedding tears of relief and joy, while Aniti chuckled, but otherwise just stared at them.
"Tell us what torture you want us to do them in your stead," Chris said kindly, but to his surprise one of the women shook her head.
"I’m not a slave," Aniti told them, catching them by surprise. "I.. I can torture them myself!" She said. "Please! Let me!"
The Alterans’ eyebrows rose and Chris stared at her, before summoning a knife he had in his space, and handing it to her.
The woman pursed her lips and held back her tears before turning to the men. In particular, the men who touched her.
The men’s eyes widened as the blade came closer to them. However, they couldn’t move at all as they were tied down to the soil by various abilitilies.
In the end, they could only stare as the woman raised her blade, ready to stab them.
"AHHHH!!!"
The slaves and Alterans watched in morbid fascination as the girl stabbed each one, specifically on their manhoods, over and over. It looked painful to watch and Mao couldn’t bear to look without cringing.
She stabbed and stabbed, killing those men who violated her. She then turned to the aborigines, who flinched and wildly shook their heads as they looked at her.
Before she could do anything though, she felt a warm calloused hand on her shoulder. She looked to see it was Chris. "Don’t kill the aborigine yet."
She nodded, stopping, but then an exclamation sounded behind them. It was Mao, looking at the aether letter. "Hey! It’s time!"
At this, Chris’ let go of his hand and said, "Ah, never mind."
Aditi’s eyes brightened and she looked at the two men whose eyes were wide in terror.
"You should’ve know this would happen to you after all you did to us," he said, stabbing the two in their hearts as well.
And so, Inuk and Penko were no more.
