Title: Back from the Well Summary: Atlantis has been raided and her people are trapped on a primitive world where technology is forbidden and they are forced to work as slaves. Rating: NC-17 for scenes of rape and torture. Category: Slash. Extreme hurt/comfort. Keywords: Angst, hurt/comfort, romance Archive: Anywhere! Author's Notes: This is a very long story (over 51,000 words) and there is a lot of McShep, McBeck and Beck/Shep interaction and emotion so I think lovers of those pairings who aren't necessarily into threesomes would get something from this fic. Thanks: Many thanks to Bluespirit who offered me such wonderful encouragement and support and great beta advice while I was writing this monster. She also made me with the perfect title graphic. Thanks also to Sergeeva for comments and kindness :-). Big thanks to Phoebe for the medical beta :-) Any mistakes are my own. WARNING: Scenes of rape
and torture. Awards: This story won best hurt/comfort (multiples) in the Stargate Fan Awards, 2006 Extract Even in the shade, his forehead was beaded with sweat that dripped down the side of his face and into his beard, and he could tell by the heat in his shoulders that the lacerations had become infected.
