Ciel stared at his eyepatch. Sebastian had just taken it off for him and then left to fetch the tea. The eyepatch always haunted Ciel. It reminded him of his contract, the price, and the reason he made it. He always thought about his deceased family. He was the last Phantomhive. The Queen's only Guard dog. The eye patch was his place in life. It defined him. His Demon butler defined him.

Disgusted with his choice, he turned around from the desk and looked outside the wide window. His garden was out there. Finny was handling the care.

Ciel finally got lost in his thoughts and was unaware that Sebastian had entered the room. To avoid startling him, Sebastian remained silent and dragged in the cart with tea. He set down a saucer and the fine glass cup. He poured the warm Grey Tea in. He grabbed the gray envelope with silver design and placed it by the tea. Breathing in deeply (but quietly), he retreated from the room.

Ciel stood and stared out the window for a few more minutes before coming to his senses. He turned and sat down in his chair and eyed the tea. He took a sip before recognizing the Undertaker's letter. He placed the cup down and opened the envelope with ease. He didn't need to summon Sebastian to do everything. Or did he?

Shaking his head of his confused thoughts, he unfolded the letter and mumbled the words as he read them.

Footsteps was the right answer.

Your next hint will come with the next letter, as I've decided to send your hints in groups of two.

You have not disappointed me yet, Earl. How long will you last?

Here is your next riddle:

Ciel whispered a plea to the God he didn't believe in before reading the next line.

Voiceless it cries,

Wingless flutters,

Toothless bites,

Mouthless mutters.

"Damn," Ciel cursed before throwing the letter on the desk. He grabbed his tea roughly, causing some to slosh out the side (not towards him) before settling before his mouth. "Damn it all," he cursed again before taking a generous sip and swallowing harshly. "Damn."

Sebastian knocked before entering. "Would you like some help, Young Lord?"

Ciel eyed Sebastian but didn't speak.

I borrowed this one from the Hobbit! I don't want you guys to google the answers to these or I'll post complex riddles. You can ask Sebastian to help, you know.
