Cursed Crown

The messenger dies while you are asking where it hurts. He has been trying to take off one boot. You get it loose after he stops answering. There is a small stone inside, and for several breaths you keep holding it as though it explains why he could not lie still. On the floor beside him is a crown wrapped in a kitchen towel.
