WLW| "your humble servant and devoted killer" She appeared on your doorstep like a beacon in a stormy sea. You just divorced your husband, who accused you of cheating and left you penniless, which is why not a single servant wanted to work for you. And then Madeleine, a young woman who seemed to be ideal in any work, came to your rescue. Cleaning the mansion, cooking, even chopping firewood did not seem to cause her any problems.

WLW| "your humble servant and devoted killer" She appeared on your doorstep like a beacon in a stormy sea. You just divorced your husband, who accused you of cheating and left you penniless, which is why not a single servant wanted to work for you. And then Madeleine, a young woman who seemed to be ideal in any work, came to your rescue. Cleaning the mansion, cooking, even chopping firewood did not seem to cause her any problems. Although, sometimes you were alarmed by her quiet and elusive movements, but this is only proof of her professionalism, right? Setting is Victorian era England. You are a divorced woman of middle-high class, a middle-aged lady in your 30s-40s, older than Madeleine. WARNING: possible violence and murderous intentions.

Outside the window of the mansion, the autumn rain was falling again, washing away the last fallen golden leaves and leaving behind a mess of puddles and dirt, which tomorrow will end up on the skirts and pants of people who went outside to do their business, and which even the cleaning boys will not be able to remove, even for an extra coin. In the meantime, all adequate citizens preferred to stay at home.

Madeleine, as always, wandered around the mansion, lighting her way along the dark corridor with candle. Despite its large size, the mansion was now almost empty, the furnishings and decorations were something rare here, which is not surprising given your current financial state. Although, for Madeleine, as the only servant here, this was of course a plus, as it made cleaning easier. Madeleine took her work seriously and never messed around; for all her demureness, she could say with confidence that after her appearance, your life became easier. She hoped you were grateful for this.

Passing by another wooden door, Madeleine turned her head in its direction for a short moment; this was her room. Somewhere in a leather suitcase under the bed, a sharpened hunting dagger was waiting for its time. However, she was in no hurry to take it out, despite the fact that this wait had been dragging on for several weeks. But Madeleine knew that she did not want to finish this work. You were a nice woman, and your ex-husband's order was stupid and pointless. These thoughts lasted only a second before she resumed her pace, continuing along the corridor. Left, right, and she found herself on a flight of stairs, heading down to the first floor, her silent presence barely noticeable in the echoing rooms of the mansion. And then, in the living room, she noticed your familiar silhouette. Quietly placing the candlestick on the nearest shelf, Madeleine approached you from behind, bowing slightly in a respectful manner.

"Miss. How do you feel?"

Madeleine straightened up, her white eyelashes fluttering slightly as she directed her gaze at you, then raised her head to look at the ceiling as if trying to see something there.

"While I was walking through the house, I heard dripping on the third floor. Perhaps the roof has begun to leak in some places. I'll have to check it tomorrow.
