Samuel Silvers was a man of a very curious nature, and as such he loved the adventures that come with living in an old house with plenty of dark secrets to be uncovered. A while back he and the family had moved to an old Scottish castle. Sam, as his friends called him, had been very excited to find out that this particular castle had a network of tunnels far beneath the ground under the castle, as it was just his type of adventure. 
 
 For a long time, Sam had been waiting for the moment he would be home alone, and finally able to go down into the dark corridors without his wifes judging comments and threats. The moment eventually came on a beautiful day when his wife had to work overtime. He climbed down the stairs into the labyrinth of tunnels. 
 
 Upon walking around for a bit, careful to remember the way back, he ended up finding an old wodden door at the end of a small and poorly lit tunnel. The find made him overjoyed. The door was not dusty, as if someone had just opened it five minutes ago. Samuel naturally felt an overwhelming wish to explore, and opened the door. He looked into the room and saw only a table with what seemed to be a book and a quill placed neatly upon it. 
 
 Samuel walked into the room, and the second he did so the door slammed shut. Shocked by the sound, he spun around quickly. He instantly felt a shiver down his spine and realised that there was no point in attempting to escape the room he had just walked into. He would normally have attempted, but there was now a solid stone wall in the place where a door had just allowed him to pass through. 
 
 ” Write the name of someone you want dead, and it will happen. ” a deep and monotone voice suddenly said. 
 
 ” I don ’ t want anyone to die! ” Samuel screamed out in fear as he looked for the source of the voice. 
 
 ” One name, and you will be released. ” the disembodied voice replied calmly. 
 
 Samuel was absolutely terrified, but chose to stay quiet. He walked up to the book and tried to assemble his scattered thoughts. He thought long and hard about who he would kill, and for every second he spent in the room he became more certain that there was only one person who he could murder without staining his conscience too much. 
 
 Slowly, and with trembling fingers, he picked up the book, opened it, and was baffled to see that most pages were full of names. As he saw the names filling the pages, a memory he had previously forgotten came back to him. He took the quill and instantly scribbled another name in the book, knowing fully that he was sentencing a person to death with every letter. A human who was every bit as living and feeling as anyone else was about to fade away into nothingness. Samuel hesitated for a brief moment before completing the name, but he knew that what he was doing was the right thing. 
 
 As he stood up, the door appeared. Samuel walked out of the room and up the stairs. He knew the memory of the room would soon disappear, as it always did. This was celebration time though, no longer would his wife be angry about his habit of visiting the tunnels when he was stressed.
