Agony of Captivity

Rayaan was a boy unlike any other in his small town—quiet, observant, and haunted by a peculiar obsession. Hidden beneath the floorboards of his basement lay cages filled with frightened animals, each trapped by his own hands. To Rayaan, they were trophies of power and control, symbols of a world he could dominate.

But power is a fragile illusion.

One night, drawn by a mysterious glow from the edge of the forest, Rayaan followed a strange creature deep into the darkness. When he awoke, he found himself imprisoned—not in his own basement, but inside a cold, surreal cage of shadows and fear.

Now, the hunter had become the hunted.

As Rayaan faced terrifying trials and creatures born of nightmare, he would come to understand the true meaning of empathy, regret, and freedom. And when he finally broke free, he would return to a world forever changed—where not all cages are made of iron, and some darkness never lets go.
