The Orchard Wall
Loading image...
The Capulet party has ended, but your heart beats too wildly for sleep. You cannot go home—not when your soul remains behind these walls. You stand in the shadows of the lane bordering the Capulet estate.
Behind you, you hear your friends Benvolio and Mercutio calling your name. Mercutio mocks you, conjuring the spirit of your old crush, Rosaline, to make you appear. He thinks you are still heartsick for her, knowing nothing of Juliet.
"If love be blind, love cannot hit the mark!" Mercutio laughs into the night.
The orchard wall is high, and inside lies the territory of your mortal enemies. If the Capulet guards find you, they will kill you.
