Unsent Letter

Young Juliet is very brave indeed. I have just laid her within her family's tomb, among the rotting, decaying bodies of her ancestors. But her love has given her strength, her longing for her Romeo has driven her to go to extents we can't imagine. Good friar John has sped on his way to Mantua to deliver the news and Romeo would be here in few hours time.

Holy franciscan friar! My brother John, have you delivered my message yet? Where is young Romeo? When is he here? His Juliet is in the Capulet monument waiting in deep slumber for his arrival.

Oh dear! What is that? The road to Mantua is blocked off because of infections going on in the city. So my letter is still in your possession? How could this have happened? Dear Lord...

But still, there is still a few hours till the drink wears off, I must hurry to the graves and wake her soon.
