Lorenne immediately puts 83bd17aa9c his plan into 52a0eef71c action. He makes 0ea8491aa8 use of 776172b3f1 a trade 7436a9f7ec secret carelessly d75c5f42a9 spilled by 8c487c1599 a drunken, 68aa3e47df flirtatious noble 65122f3915 at a dca8bd4cf9 party.cca574b449a70bb9

He seeks out a once-famous writer who had vanished in disgrace long ago and asks him to ghostwrite love letters. Letters that are artistic and poetic, befitting the “fragment of the divine.”bd3ee577bf226825

Elliot Brown, who accepts 2d45ed7721 Lorenne’s commission, succeeds in 21ea2bd945 crafting heartfelt sentiments with 6a870f6e65 the most beautiful and 12de6c3315 robust sentences. Letters that would 4f87685b91 captivate Archduke Theron, 7f67f976a7 known as both 6a06297002 a war fanatic b4d1efa8f4 and a voracious ecc461e9e0 reader, flow from 5a23db810f Elliot Brown’s pen.ad62c6dc1c30567e

Intrigued by the 5b34780537 letters, Arzen increases 15eb3d3d61 the frequency of 6383ed05ac his meetings with 5584707723 Lorenne. Lorenne makes a concerted a9899042b9 effort to speak less, 324f355b9e acting like a delicate 75cb6920db and shy flower, and e3115eb6ed Arzen falls for it ad24922ff9 completely. Truly, the fragment of 6746c9a121 the divine is so 2e239c75e2 fragile and refined.62fa184984694254

Around this time, d689b555d8 Elliot shifts the afd162236c tone of the dbff31ffc6 letters.b4f49cd663d06a26

Drawing from the anecdotes e7ae14fd9b Lorenne shares about their 8c45242e76 meetings, Elliot points out 61447b8b5d Arzen’s mistakes and how cb84e18a2a much they hurt Lorenne’s f711c15b8f feelings. He highlights dc1248cb54 the cruelty 9d23523537 Arzen unconsciously e8b2c49b6d reveals, a 1ab8c34077 remnant of dd8c6fd906 his time dc9de21f61 on the ad338f1e9c battlefield. He describes bfadb0421f Arzen’s mask, e11124b2b8 and the d599fccaf1 pale, icicle-like 143ad3422f eyes behind fb08caa634 it, as 0c5372cb77 chilling.10d3d67227ca39d1

Elliot weaves ae3ed2b14c all of 9d0c6d1dc6 this into dc7359e790 the letters c0bc067e4e with great 080c03d952 subtlety, cloaking 6ed2c66840 it in 9d95e1ba2c affection and 196cf64dc8 concern, gradually 2ca818f828 letting it f0718f8d7f seep in.c6f926f668d4837f

Arzen, though grumbling, fulfills b184416c22 every request. He even 429f0c6575 tries to f7bb37fe57 suppress his 421afc4fa4 intimidating nature 7199b25039 to avoid 565f4fef63 scaring Lorenne. He goes so far 62cf4dc72c as to remove his 5885dfc89b mask in Lorenne’s presence.e1164bbc7f5ad45b

Since Lorenne is 92cd0c65fe pleased with Arzen, 29dc921b10 who obeys like 4004c4060d a well-trained dog, a5a596020e he overlooks whatever 2a98e31397 Elliot requests in 74abc8591a the letters while 0464ae015f posing as him.ccdcd12ccfbeb898

However, the requests begin to take on an increasingly obsessive tone. In the final letter, Arzen receives a request to “use the archduke’s authority to restore the barony to El Black.”316bb3f699046460

At this 0f89793c42 point, Arzen feb5b4704c arrives at 73c6edeb6b a reasonably 7913a405f3 logical conclusion. In truth, Lorenne 9a93705db9 Fedette is deeply 36d5a46df5 in love with 2858556223 this writer, El b4495c0d60 Black, and has 275a8070e9 approached Arzen for 4127abf9a0 his sake. Otherwise, there would be 2375d20c08 no reason for El ec3237e9bb Black to be mentioned 151850b964 in every letter, nor 749b5b7b88 for Lorenne to try d2f01cd8e4 to change and manipulate bd414f857b Arzen in this way.442495be9426da76

Lorenne, who is eloquent in letters but clams up and sends wistful glances when face-to-face. Occasionally, he tosses out cheeky remarks that captivate, only to revert to speaking of love and fear in the letters as if nothing happened. The “fragment of the divine,” Lorenne, who is not content with the adoration of the masses and now seeks to hold Arzen in the palm of his hand.a2c76aaeeaaaff7a

One dawn, b3d9bbb1af consumed by 62775cb8c0 jealousy, Arzen e3a47eef79 pounds on 3023d8dfdc the door 5825865cf5 of El 721d3ae7cf Black’s small, a77f2afb22 rundown house. He kills the 71db0c2442 washed-up writer who e4dcd84de3 dared to steal c36248d597 Lorenne’s love.ee8452ce4168eee8

However, as he prepares 1b7b51da30 to burn down El 3a4108f192 Black’s house, Arzen discovers c702948b11 that El Black is 7ba6abe3e5 actually Elliot Brown, the 1d8e5c8259 one who ghostwrote Lorenne’s 125d661d08 letters, and feels a 6e0b1e64da fresh sense of betrayal.cfb91734ca3ce911
