A thought-provoking short story, whose literal premise is about a man who escaped a solitary imprisonment (in a castle) only to find rejection. It's not quite horror for me as I found it rather predictable. The thought-provoking part is because the imprisonment and the escape can be interpreted in several ways, when you consider the oddity of the disparity between the realities before and after the escape. All in all, an interesting read.
