Description
In the early hours of morning, long before the city awoke, I was its sentinel. You think me a mere lamplighter, performing menial tasks on the docks. Yet as the first to witness the day’s birth, I'm privy to secrets the cobblestones whisper, the tales the waves murmur, and the confessions that the dawn's first light reveals.
You, with your gold and stature, thought you could look down upon me. Little did you realize, the docks spoke tales of your double dealings, your clandestine meetings, your deceptions. For every time you believed the darkness shrouded your secrets, I was there, listening, watching, and collecting.
You underestimate the power of one who hears the stories of ships from distant lands, of sailors with no home, of crates that contain more than what their labels suggest. Every morning, the docks unfold a new chapter to me, and every dawn I gather knowledge, becoming richer than any coin could offer.
I’ve watched as the city slept, the raw truths that are concealed in the day and revealed only under the tender embrace of the nascent sun. You might control the city when it’s awake, but in the quiet hours, it belongs to me. And so do its secrets.
One day, when you least expect, the tales of your betrayal, your greed, and your sins will find their way from my lips to the ears of those who matter. You will realize the underestimated might of the lamplighter, the keeper of morning’s secrets. And then, as the very docks you believed were your realm rise against you, it is you who will be engulfed by the twilight of your own making.
