I stared through the open window to the dusty streets below. A gust of gentle wind blew softly across the cobbled streets below, engulfing the weary men and women in a grey cloud. Cruel coach-drivers whipped their horses, and the horse's nostrils flared and puffed out steam. The day was going past normally, nothing unusual was happening. I turned away, back into my cool dark room. No lights but a single candle lit my room, and the room was empty and bare save a bed and a case of books.

'I'm so sorry Evan. How did she die?'
And he looked at me, and his eyes were wild and furious, and they were so filled with hate that it made me sit back.
