I visited my old friend Roderick Usher in his ancient stone house, where I sensed death. His sister, Lady Madeline, had recently passed away, and we had laid her to rest in a dark and damp vault within the palace. Observing her face, I noticed the siblings looked almost identical. Usher explained that they were born on the same day, and their bond was powerful.

We didn't linger over Madeline for long, as fear and wonder filled our hearts. A change came over Usher; his mind seemed to become sick. His face grew even paler, and his eyes looked sad. His voice trembled with fear, and he spent hours staring at nothing.
As days passed since Madeline's burial, Usher's mental state worsened. Unable to sleep, I felt his fears affecting me.

He moved out of the house
He celebrated her death
He seemed afraid
He fell ill

Read Me
I lost control, jumping from my chair. Usher sat, trembling, muttering about hearing the sounds for days. Terrified, he claimed Madeline was coming to ask why she was placed in the vault too soon. He pointed to the door, claiming she stood there. As it slowly opened, the tall figure of Lady Madeline, covered in blood, appeared. She fell upon Usher, and they both died. I fled from the house just in time to watch it collapse into the dark lake.
03
What had Usher been hearing?
Someone breaking in to the house
The storm
Nothing, he was imagining it
His sister who was still alive
04

They both died
They got into a fight about the house
They decided to leave the house
