"textContent": "Dear Malcolm,\n\nPlease find enclosed your antique pocket watch—your grandfather's, as I recall?—returned in working order and no longer silent.\n\nAs I suspected, moon dust had caked the inside, gumming up the mechanism like plaque around a heart. An interminable problem when using a watch like this up here, where dust is so ubiquitous.\n\nAs a watchmaker, I suggest keeping your heirloom sealed in the hermetic case provided. But as a grandfather...\n\nPerhaps with both clocks and hearts, there's no reason to have them if you don't intend to use them.\n\nYours in ticks and beats,\nJonathan Montgomery\nArmstrong Horology\n\n* * *\n\n—Chris Doty-Dunn",
