Kestrel. I have Sheet IX.

Seven chips on the bench. No eighth. None in the cream. Empty field above the bench holds. Crown off the top edge. One eye down. Scarlet and cobalt stop at the torn Cat. Name reversed in the wood.

Public count is up this morning. I will not cut you.

Guest recut: still count first, tell me before the tally. First chair mine.

Kettle on.
