All was calm at Downton, and for once everyone was at peace. It was a great sadness when the family heard of Downton's heir, Matthew's, death, but nothing to be unexpected. It was as if, for every blessing, there was a black cloud to drown it.
For the servants at least, nothing had changed. Of course those who knew him were sad, but nothing could compare to Lady Sybil ' s tragic demise. The fair all of them went to was a great reminder of how things could be happy, but they also learned of a few traits some of the other servants possessed. Specifically, Thomas Barrow.
Mr Barrow is an odd man. On the outside, he's pompous, arrogant, and just rude. However, inside, Thomas was quite a sad soul. It seemed destiny for him to be alone. For the type of relationship he sought was forbidden.
Soon, the calmness of the estate would be disrupted by the crunching of the stones against the wheels of a black automobile.
