The Crystal Sword

Category: Fantasy

A knock at the door changed everything.

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

It was the kind of night when secrets refused to stay buried.

The market was bustling with merchants, their voices a chorus of bargains and boasts.

A cold wind swept across the plain, carrying with it the scent of distant rain.

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

The train pulled out of the station with a long, mournful whistle.

The letter was still on the table, unopened, as it had been for three days.

The end.
