He didnt think he could carry a single box. His arms hurt like hell, his back was on fire, but he didnt stop. A faceless man asked if he could give him a box. Sometimes our strength surprises us. A moment ago, he felt that if someone were to put a single feather on top of his pile he might crumble, but he couldnt send his friend, the Faceless Man away with the burdens in his box. Some burdens you carry because theyre yours, some belong to loved ones and some you carry because you must. The Faceless Man put the box of burden on top of his pile and walked away. Our boy fell almost instantly to his knees. With an absurd surge of determination, he rose to his feet, just to bump straight into someone else. The girl carried boxes on her back, tons of boxes. So many boxes that the simple shove he gave her sent her to the ground. Hey! she yelled. He helped her off the ground, started to apologise, but found he was too tired to talk. Youre carrying so many boxes, he whispered. Oh, this? She pointed to the burdens on her back, Its nothing. I was actually coming to see if you need help with your boxes. She held up her hands, You look like you could use the extra hand.
