Whispers

mamamarleigh

Cloaked figures

Hushed tones

A crowd waits

I can make out their words

"There is no dawn"

"It's settled, then?"

"We have to challenge them"

I don't know what to think

What is this

I've never heard about it

It seems odd

"All documents will be destroyed."

 

Watch.

A coolness.

A calmness.

Nothing I can do.

This is history.

Yet,

 

It was the one.
