Amulets

September 23rd, Monday, Whitebeard's Bar:

Once again, Rose meticulously cleaned the entire bar and then turned her attention to Whitebeard's private room. The space appeared as though it hadn't seen a cleaning in ages, save for the table which was surprisingly neat.

Among the items in a drawer, she found his revolver. Taking it, she carefully placed it on the table before proceeding to clean the drawer.

Rose didn't react much to the sight of the firearm, understanding its purpose as a means of protection.

After cleaning, she returned the revolver to its place and then attended to the other drawers which held various papers. In the final drawer, she discovered a hand-sized wooden horse, placing it on the table.

Just as she was engrossed in her task, Whitebeard entered the room, his eyes catching the wooden horse.
