As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting the landscape in a golden hue that quickly turned to darkness, Suzanne approached the gallows. A figure, shrouded in shadows, awaited her. With a voice low and mysterious, Ewp Ewprod began to speak, his words painting vivid images of hanging and asphyxia, topics that both repelled and intrigued Suzanne.
