The Inheritance

Category: Thriller

The sword was heavier than she expected, but she did not lower it.

She had not expected to see him again, not after all these years.

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.

A knock at the door changed everything.

He had been waiting for her for what felt like an eternity.

The stars that night seemed closer than they had any right to be.

There were stories told of this place, and none of them ended well.

The end.
