the Story:
"You're very brave, and I regret only that I cannot help any sooner. Remember: if you cannot get to the door, I will be watching the library windows."
In the cover of the trees, the moonlight shone on something white that was far colder than the snow, and that something smiled. "Good luck."
Thank you! said the little voice in his head, which then went silent.
A notification pinged in his internal circuitry: channel closed. There was silence then, save for a little wind through the winter forest, until the smiling skeletal thing could no longer hold back. There in the cover of the trees, he laughed.
For the royalty indeed. Inferno would have liked the future.
