..-------------------------------------------. | GRAVE KNIGHT RANK 3 | | BLOOD [#####....] 5/9 MIGHT 3 | | FLAME [... ] 0/3 BURN 4 | '-------------------------------------------'
The crown is lighter than it looks. It fits as if it has been waiting for the shape of your thoughts.
You could use the bell gently. Only for the lost. Only for those who would otherwise be forgotten. You tell yourself this, and the lake listens.
Above you, the first grave begins to ring.
Ninety-nine winters from now, someone will stand on the hill with a lantern. You hope they will understand.
