It was the kind of night when secrets refused to stay buried.
He was the kind of man who kept his word, even when it cost him.

The market was bustling with merchants, their voices a chorus of bargains and boasts.
The morning light filtered through the curtains, painting the room in soft gold.
The letter was still on the table, unopened, as it had been for three days.
The end.
