Zurab turned, his calm face twisting into rage. "No, no, no! You broke the holy worm!"

Nino woke on a cold metal table. The air smelled of iodine, rust, and sour wine. Above her, a single bare bulb swung, casting shadows on faded murals of Stalinist harvests. Her wrists were strapped down. Her mouth… her mouth was impossibly dry, and she felt a strange, pulling tightness at the back of her throat.
"Welcome to the middle," he said in Georgian, his voice gentle as a priest’s. Then he switched to broken English for the others: "You are now one. Front eats. Middle receives. End… completes the cycle. Like a holy worm."
His name was Dr. Zurab Gelashvili. Once a celebrated surgeon in Tbilisi, he had become obsessed with a twisted interpretation of an old Georgian proverb: "ერთობაში ძალაა" – “In unity, there is strength.” But Zurab took it literally. He believed the human digestive system was the key to a new form of communal existence. One mouth, one stomach, one end – a living chain.
But Nino had already grabbed the jar of ჭანჭური . She smashed it against the wall. The dark liquid splashed into Zurab’s eyes. He screamed – not from pain, but from the ancient herbs burning his corneas like holy fire.
