A note stuck on the general store's warehouse door reads: Sorry, I had to leave half an hour early today to see a doctor. I'm not feeling too good. I've been having a few sudden, intense aches, I think the part where I got scratched hasn't healed normally. I've already taken stock of everything for today, and those people who didn't like me didn't follow as far as the store. No worries. A note stuck on the shabby bottle of perfume reads: Thank you for always being with me all this time, and always being able to find me. This is a present for you. I know it's far from enough as a thank you, so if there's anything else I can do for you, please be sure to tell me right away. Also, my sickness is mostly set to keep getting worse... If in time, this present can remind you of me every now and then, then I'm happy. It's alright if you can't remember me too. A note fallen in the market's grit paving reads: Hello, do you need help sorting out goods or cleaning up dust? I can do other work too. I'd like to work in exchange for some food. You might not notice where I am, but please don't worry. I'll do everything as earnestly as possible. A note trapped beneath the dagger reads: Mission complete. A note stuck in the corner of the bulletin board of a Rhodes Island lounge, almost covered by the neighboring rainbow of stickers reads: Everyone at the get-together sang very well. I didn't think it was one bit noisy. But if you decide to move to a more soundproofed room next time, could you put a notice up on the bulletin board beforehand? Thank you to the person who recommended me drinks. I liked that sour and sweet dark orange one a lot. —Manticore
