610. Stella

She carefully works to open the heavily locked brass bound chest buried deep within my mind there is no key that will open it easily and so it is a puzzle for her to solve Every question is a delicate pick gently probing the pins within each lock they answer in their own way by shifting slightly lifting gently on their springs allowing each barrel to turn One by one they will open slowly and fall away into the dark void though there are still many left to crack each one possibly more difficult than the last Eventually the last one will disappear and the chest can be opened properly the hinges groaning as the lid is thrown back finally she will be able to see what was hidden I just hope she will not be disappointed by what she may discover inside
