Last Days of Peace

Pale sunshine poured through the open window, and a gentle breeze made the curtains flutter. Sunny opened his eyes slowly, laying comfortably in his opulent bed. The subtle sounds of the city waking up washed over him, bright and lively on this peaceful morning. 

He yawned, then slowly got up. 

Today was like any other day in Bastion. There were some changes about the mood on the streets of the young city as of late, but mostly, it was the same. The Brilliant Emporium was also the same — except for one detail. 

There was a hand-drawn sign standing in front of the entrance. It had been there for the past few days, attracting plenty of attention.

The sign said:

"Closing soon

*Temporarily

**Farewell discounts for everyone! Best waffles in two worlds!"
