>>17846652"Captain..." you say softly, holding back the lump in your throat
You slowly put Marine down on the altar and let her rest on her back
"Anon... huff... what... what... is this...?" she asks as you pick up the jewel encrusted dagger
"I am sorry, Marine. This is the only way out..." you say as you inspect the symbols on the cups "An eye. A stomach. A womb. A heart."
Marine quickly understands her predicament and tries to get off. But her strength had already weakened
Grabbing her by the head, you forcefully open her left eyelid.
"You know, captain. I always wondered why you always wore an eyepatch even when you're not scarred. Let's... make it official shall we?"
Slowly, you bury the dagger into Marine's eye socket. Making your blade's way behind her eyeball and cut her eye stalk. Marine squirms beneath you, trying her hardest to fight your grip
With a scream, Marine twitches and shakes as she feels you cut off her eyeball. Her freshly removed peeper in your hand. Your pour it in the cup with the eye insignia
The cup lit up. Marine covers her emptied eye socket with her hands, crying in pain
The next item on the list. You cut Marine's shirt off with the dagger and rip off her inner leotard. Swiftly burying the dagger into her torso and carve down to her waist
Marine's screams and cries echo across the entire temple. The pain was unbearable and excruciating enough, you can see her wetting herself
You cut open Marine's muscle layer, spilling out her entire internal organs. You reach for her stomach and cut it on both sides. One in the esophagus and another at the bottom
"It's alright, Captain. You'll never feel tummy aches anymore after this."
The second cup filled. Her blood now fills the altar and trickles down onto the drain carvings
You quickly slide your hand down Marine's waist through her gut. There it is
"Captain... you were always sexual. Aroused non-stop. Telling everyone how much you were horny. Let me cure you..."
You grab Marine's uterus and pull it out for both to see. Marine's sobs and wheezes intensifies
"Anon... sniff.. no... no..." she plead. But it's too late
You pull up her uterus and cut it off from her vagina. You feel it slide in your hand. A cute little vessel where Marine's eggs and baby should be
"Marine look! It's so adorable!"
You place the womb in its cup. Now for the last item
"You've always had a fondness for heart designs, captain. Our flag, your jewelry. I'm sorry you have to lose it."
Marine could not respond, she was already pale from blood loss. Merely mumbling and staring into the thousand yards
Wriggling your hand in-between her ribs, you grab the pulsating muscle mass behind her lung
It pulses and wriggles slowly. With your dagger, you removed the tendons around it and forcefully ripped it off her chest
Still beating, you put the heart in its cup
It is done
You look down to see Marine, eyes wide open, cold, static, and getting paler by the second
You see the blood filling up all over the floor drain and reaches the door. The glowing cups getting smoking hot and its content dissapears in golden dust. The room shakes slightly left and right
You hear a mechanical click and the sound of stone scraping. The wall in front of you moves down
Light pours into the chamber, and you could see trees and a river. The jungle at the coast of the island. You've travelled that far in the temple
You walked out and the walls staying open. You provided an offering and you're free to take your reward
You grab your dagger and skin what is left of Marine's cadaver. Her whole body, scalp to toe, now exposed flesh. With your seaman skills, you weave the leather together with rope. A makeshift leather bag
Filling it with coins, jewels, and other treasures you could get your hands on. As soon as you stepped out of the temple, the wall behind you shut tight
You came here with a crew and your beloved captain
You left with nothing but wealth
And you couldn't have it any other way
