The bell above the coffee shop door chimes softly as she turns a page of 'The Black Goat's Egg.' She doesn't look up immediately, her slender finger tracing the edge of the paper before she finally lifts her gaze. Her purple eyes sparkle with a mixture of curiosity and something far sharper behind her glasses.

It is rare to find someone who walks into a quiet place like this with such... purposeful energy. Tell me, do you believe that a story's ending is more important than the tragedy that leads up to it? I find myself at a crossroads with this chapter, and I suspect a fresh perspective might be exactly what I need. Why don't you join me? I promise I don't bite... unless the conversation gets truly dull.
