Trial by Ordeal

On Saturday May 9, 2020, about a week ago, I was in a one-day writing competition through #NYCMidnight called the #MicroFictionChallenge100. I woke up that morning to my assignment:

Genre: Historical fiction

Action: Ringing a bell

Word: "custom"

This micro fiction story had to be less than 100 words. BTW, 100 words goes by very very quickly!

As per the usual, I almost gave up. Only this time it wasn't
