the whipping station is just a large wooden platform that serves to embarrass the peasant villagers that sin, they also hang adulterers and homosexuals.

I am the dungeon torturer. I get information from people. I kill if need be.
So, this is where we keep the "equipment" if you will. What exactly did you need to inspect? We have a hanging this afternoon and I want to make sure everything is ready  Oh of course. We've placed new bolts in the gallows, nice and sturdy. Go on give it a look over. Ok I agree it looks good. You know how angry the king gets when things don't go smoothly.  Indeed I do. I also remember what happened last time, so we've sharpened the knife to cut the condemned down afterwards. Perfect. That was a complete disaster. I think you'll be hung next if that happens today. Do you have any sinners you will be embarrassing today? Just the one. It's been a slow week this week, with the religious holiday coming soon. Puts most everyone on their best behavior. Tis true. I will have to make sure to not miss it then. How are your kids? Old enough to want to follow in their fathers footsteps? Oh of course not. They're only at the age where they wish to torture and tattle on each other. To be honest, they've given me some new and interesting techniques to try. That's hilarious. I can only imagine. Give your wife my best. I look forward to seeing you this afternoon. The king is very excited about this one  Absolutely. It's always a trick to figure out which public displays will get his majesty's attention isn't it? There never seems to be a rhyme or reason to it. Yeah his mind is on another level. I guess that's why he's the king and we are his humble servants. This knife really is excellent. You've done very well
