This story is about beings from an entire planet. Beings being imprisoned and used as batteries harvested for their energy.

--- 🌌 Saga of the Obsidian Warden --- Chapter I — The Pits of Silence Lore: Long before human empires rose, an ancient race captured the Obsidian Warden, a world-devouring titan that fed on stellar light. It could not be killed, only bound. Its prison was not stone or chains, but suffering. The agony of sentient beings sustains the bindings around it, holding the monster in a perpetual half-slumber. Visual: A vast prison pit under alien skies, glowing with fiery streams. Pods line the edges, tubes siphoning the pain of captives into cubes, which channel downward into the molten abyss. Deep within the pit, vague shadowed claws press against the inner walls of energy.
