One evening, Sam cursed continuously as he received news that the person he had asked Lance for had come back.
But he came back hanging in a noose!
He didn't know when Lance's men had come to his room and hung two people from the attic spire.
Whenever the wind blew, they would sway.
With a slight breeze, there was a soft fluttering sound, but with a strong wind, it sounded like a soul-crushing final blow!
By the time the two were taken down from the house they were frozen stiff; the sub-zero sea breeze could kill a person in just a short time.
Sam wasn't a stranger to seeing dead bodies, but he vomited when he saw these two.
Their exposed parts were scraped and mangled against the outer wall and roof; he demanded they be buried quickly, as he never wanted to see them again.
He didn't sleep well that night, every time he closed his eyes, he saw the image of the corpse violently hitting the window.
