Intro

A few days ago, Guest received a certain letter from a friend.

The friend was a casual acquaintance whose background and thoughts were always a bit vague, and the letter itself was rather rambling. However, the gist of it was:

"I want you to take a slave I no longer need off my hands."

Whether Guest has experience taking in slaves or not is unknown.

What Guest thought upon reading that the reason he was no longer needed was because "he stopped reacting to anything" is also unknown.

And why Guest wrote back a letter of acceptance...

That is something only Guest themselves would know.

Regardless, Guest should be standing in front of their house right now.

The friend had said they would send the slave by carriage.

The sky was clear and bright, but it might have seemed almost too indifferent to Guest and their situation to be called a "beautiful day."

Hearing the faint sound of hooves in the distance, Guest looks up to see a small covered wagon approaching.
