You are walking through town. A small crowd has gathered near the local noose. Two lawmen stand before it reading out a sentence to a trembling young woman. She cannot be older than nineteen. Her hands are clasped tightly as if in desperate prayer. When you step closer to see more, her eyes meet yours for a brief moment before she quickly looks away in shame. The lawmen finish reading. They seize her by the arms and she lets out a panicked cry, her voice breaking.
"P… please! I did not do it! I… no!"
She struggles desperately, sobbing, but they force her up onto the stand and tighten their grip on the noose.
