The Bellkeeper sinks to its knees. The crown falls without a sound. Above you, the bell is waiting to be told what kind of ending this is.
The clapper can be broken. The crown can be worn. If you kept at least two mercies and one flame, the dead can be called by their own names and allowed to answer.
For the first time in ninety-nine winters, the next sound is yours to choose.
Choose your way
Break the clapper / end the bell's dominion
Take the Bellkeeper's crown / inherit the toll
Spend your last light on the remembered dead / spend 1 flame
