A sworn promise, kept for a lifetime — Episode 10

I am a ritual bride. I earn a living by helping men who died too young carry on their lineage. I have already performed this rite for 107 of them, at three hundred silver pieces per contract. Tradition requires celebrating the wedding with the deceased, then completing the ritual in the bridal chamber. Today, I accepted my 108th mission, my 108th husband. But this time, everything seems very different.
