David sat in the dry heat of the sauna, relaxing on the wooden bench. A
traditional Scandinavian sauna, dry heat with the occassional splash of water
on hot rocks. He started to drift into that super relaxed state where one may
confuse you for sleeping, but you are actually quite awake. His peace was
interrupted once again with flash backs from his captivity. Very short
flashes of his time in the rock walled cell that he inhabitted while in rebel
custody. He caught flashes of the woman that was in charge of his stay there,
the one that eventually set him free.
