Sanderon tried. He really did, but his limit of endurance had been reached. With tight-lipped silence, he let Talian carry him back to the bed. Being weak and helpless did not bode well with him. He had to remain strong. Those that were weak were often crushed by the cruel. He wasn't strong at all right now and it was distressing. How could he deal with danger when it came?
Making it to the bed, Talian let him down upon it and Sanderon heeded the man's coaxing and lay upon his stomach. He did not have an ounce of strength left in him.
When asked if he wanted to do without the drugs, he managed to say, "Just do what you got to do. I want... I need to stay alert."
Sanderon knew it was not going to be pleasant but he refused to put himself under the control of another. There was no one here he trusted enough to do that with yet. Once the painful procedure started though, he might feel differently. But for now he wouldn't even consider drugs as an option.
With his bloody wrists on either side of his head again, and his blood from them and his back soaking into the blankets, he waited for Talian to either speak or begin working. He hoped the man was the gentle sort...and quick too.
