He stood at the edge of the cliff, looking down at the waves crashing below.

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

Some doors, once opened, can never be closed again.

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

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

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