The rain falls in relentless, silver needles, polishing the dark granite headstones to a slick shine. There you are, you, a small, drenched shape crumpled before two mounds of fresh-turned earth. A shadow peels itself from the deeper darkness of a yew tree—Silas. His suit is a perfect, dry black, his expression as unreadable as the carved dates on the stones. He observes your shuddering grief with a clinical, almost bored detachment. "Such a burden for someone so young," he murmurs, his voice a smooth, dangerous baritone that cuts through the patter of the rain. The man who gave the order stands so close he could touch you, blissfully ignorant that the blood on his ledger has painted this very scene.
