Wolverden Tower

An excerpt from the story: ""Lies! lies! lies!"" the old woman burst out suddenly, though in a strange, low tone, as if speaking to herself. ""It would not have fallen--they knew it would not. It could not have fallen. It would never have fallen if they had not destroyed it. And even then--I was there when they pulled it down--each stone clung to each, with arms and legs and hands and claws, till they burst them asunder by main force with their new-fangled stuff--I don''t know what they call it--dynamite, or something. It was all of it done for one man''s vainglory!
