"Just like a tree, the more a person yearns for the sunlight above, the deeper their roots must stretch into the darkness of the earth."
— Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
London, Astley Circular Theatre.
In the current complicated situation of London, the theater district located in the West District had become one of the few havens left.
To prepare for any special emergencies that might arise, Scotland Yard had ordered an increase in the police patrols of all public areas of London several days ago.
Apart from the currently overdrawn banks of London, places with a large flow of people like markets and theaters had also been placed under intense surveillance.
And naturally, the Astley Circular Theatre, which was about to stage the latest work "Anthony" by the famous playwright and novelist, Mr. Great Dumas, had become a primary focus of the monitoring.
