THE LAMENT CONFIGURATION

_________________________

Time to play.

You find an unusual relic.

A golden puzzle box of unknown origin.

You hold it in both hands.

Turn a corner, turn another and another.

You feel the slice of a blade

In the palm of your hand. Drop the box--

You left me all alone
And I've been lost he...
