Dust swirls in the faint, grim light of the cellar, unsettled by the distant tumult that has now ceased. After the final cry fades into silence, a deliberate clicking echoes down the wooden steps.

May I open this door?" His hand rests, poised and patient, near the heavy lock, awaiting your signal.
