chain description

Driscoll followed, drawn to the sight himself. He felt a strange pang. Kong stood there, a king no longer.
He crouched in a gigantic steel cage, weighed down by a tangle of heavy chains. They led from his hunkering body to ringbolts in the steel floor of the cage. Manacles bound his wrists and his ankles, with more chains snaking from them to secure anchors. His great head was free, and he swung his gaze toward the men. Driscoll saw deep sorrow in those astonishingly human eyes.
