We returned to Richard\u2019s house after midnight.<\/p>\n
Police remained outside.<\/p>\n
Mara came with me.<\/p>\n
Bennett too.<\/p>\n
Walter was taken into custody for questioning, though detectives had already begun discussing cooperation agreements connected to the federal packet.<\/p>\n
Claire remained missing.<\/p>\n
Elias was under arrest.<\/p>\n
Owen was in surgery.<\/p>\n
For the first time in two days, the house felt quiet.<\/p>\n
Not safe.<\/p>\n
Just quiet.<\/p>\n
Emily ran down the stairs when she saw me.<\/p>\n
I dropped to my knees.<\/p>\n
She collided with me hard enough to push us both backward.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou came back.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI promised.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou took forever.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI know.\u201d<\/p>\n
She pulled away and looked at Mara.<\/p>\n
Her expression became curious.<\/p>\n
Mara stood frozen in the entryway.<\/p>\n
I realized neither of us had prepared for this moment.<\/p>\n
\u201cEmily.\u201d<\/p>\n
My voice trembled.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is Mara.\u201d<\/p>\n
Emily looked at her.<\/p>\n
Then at me.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe lady from the pictures?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mara\u2019s eyes filled.<\/p>\n
I continued.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe is my mother.\u201d<\/p>\n
Emily\u2019s mouth opened.<\/p>\n
Nothing came out.<\/p>\n
Then she looked at Mara again.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo you\u2019re my grandma?\u201d<\/p>\n
Mara covered her mouth.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Emily considered this for three seconds.<\/p>\n
Then walked over and hugged her.<\/p>\n
Mara broke.<\/p>\n
She sank to her knees and wrapped both arms around Emily.<\/p>\n
I turned away.<\/p>\n
Bennett did too.<\/p>\n
Some moments were too private even for witnesses who had waited thirty years.<\/p>\n
When Mara finally stood, Emily took her hand.<\/p>\n
\u201cGrandpa Richard said families can be confusing.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mara laughed through tears.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was right.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was confusing too.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cVery.\u201d<\/p>\n
That made Emily smile.<\/p>\n
I looked toward the sitting room.<\/p>\n
The chessboard remained exactly where Richard left it.<\/p>\n
Black knight.<\/p>\n
Two white pawns.<\/p>\n
His glasses beside the board.<\/p>\n
For days I had walked past it thinking grief had preserved the position.<\/p>\n
Now I knew better.<\/p>\n
Richard rarely left anything important unfinished by accident.<\/p>\n
I approached the table.<\/p>\n
Mara remained behind me.<\/p>\n
Bennett stopped at the doorway.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is yours,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
I looked at him.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re not coming?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
That surprised me.<\/p>\n
He nodded toward the board.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf Richard wanted an attorney there, he would have named one.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mara squeezed Emily\u2019s hand.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll stay here too.\u201d<\/p>\n
I sat alone.<\/p>\n
The black knight stood at the center.<\/p>\n
I picked it up.<\/p>\n
Nothing.<\/p>\n
The base was solid.<\/p>\n
I examined the pawns.<\/p>\n
Nothing.<\/p>\n
Then I remembered Emily\u2019s carved chess piece.<\/p>\n
Knights don\u2019t go straight when there\u2019s danger.<\/p>\n
They go around.<\/p>\n
I looked beneath the table.<\/p>\n
At first, I saw only wood.<\/p>\n
Then I noticed four small screws holding a panel against the underside.<\/p>\n
One screw had a tiny black mark.<\/p>\n
A knight shape.<\/p>\n
I fetched a screwdriver from Richard\u2019s desk.<\/p>\n
The panel came loose.<\/p>\n
Behind it was a shallow compartment.<\/p>\n
One envelope.<\/p>\n
One key.<\/p>\n
One flash drive.<\/p>\n
The envelope read:<\/p>\n
ANNA \u2014 NO LAWYER, NO WITNESS, NO INSTRUCTIONS AFTER THIS.<\/p>\n
My breath caught.<\/p>\n
For the first time, Richard had left me something that claimed not to control what happened next.<\/p>\n
I opened the letter.<\/p>\n
Annie,<\/p>\n
If you are reading this, then every plan I made has already failed in at least one way.<\/p>\n
I almost laughed.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s accurate.\u201d<\/p>\n
The room remained silent.<\/p>\n
I continued.<\/p>\n
You now know that I removed Daniel\u2019s petition, moved you through the county system, lost track of you, found you years later, watched from a distance, arranged your employment, concealed your mother\u2019s survival, married you, and delayed telling you nearly every truth because I kept convincing myself that the next moment would be safer.<\/p>\n
He had listed it plainly.<\/p>\n
No justification yet.<\/p>\n
No softening.<\/p>\n
I read on.<\/p>\n
There is no version of those facts in which I am only a good man.<\/p>\n
My throat tightened.<\/p>\n
There is also no version in which I am only the worst thing I did.<\/p>\n
You once told Emily that people should be judged by what they repair after they break something.<\/p>\n
I remembered saying that after she snapped a neighbor\u2019s garden ornament.<\/p>\n
Richard had been listening.<\/p>\n
I spent most of my life believing repair meant controlling the damage myself.<\/p>\n
That belief harmed you almost as deeply as my original mistake.<\/p>\n
I looked toward the doorway.<\/p>\n
Mara and Emily were no longer visible.<\/p>\n
They had given me privacy.<\/p>\n
I continued.<\/p>\n
The key opens a safe-deposit box under your birth name.<\/p>\n
Anna Margaret Hale.<\/p>\n
Inside are three things.<\/p>\n
First, the complete original Dawson ledger.<\/p>\n
I looked at the key.<\/p>\n
Claire\u2019s version had only part.<\/p>\n
Richard had the whole thing.<\/p>\n
Second, signed statements from me, Walter, Claire, and Thomas Mercer, gathered at different times.<\/p>\n
Thomas\u2019s statement had been completed before his death.<\/p>\n
My pulse quickened.<\/p>\n
Third, a list of every person we were able to identify as harmed by Walter\u2019s trafficking operation or by the record manipulation that followed.<\/p>\n
Owen had been right.<\/p>\n
The children.<\/p>\n
Richard continued.<\/p>\n
The flash drive contains copies.<\/p>\n
The originals are in the box.<\/p>\n
You may give them to federal investigators.<\/p>\n
You may give them to journalists.<\/p>\n
You may destroy my statement and preserve the victims\u2019 identities while turning over the criminal evidence through Bennett.<\/p>\n
You may do nothing tonight.<\/p>\n
The choice is yours.<\/p>\n
I stopped.<\/p>\n
It was the first time Richard had ever written those words to me.<\/p>\n
The choice is yours.<\/p>\n
Not stay in the house.<\/p>\n
Not open this room.<\/p>\n
Not trust this person.<\/p>\n
Not follow this road.<\/p>\n
Yours.<\/p>\n
I continued.<\/p>\n
I have already directed my estate into restitution structures so that your decision does not determine whether people receive help.<\/p>\n
I blinked.<\/p>\n
So the money did not depend on me exposing anyone.<\/p>\n
Richard had separated repair from confession.<\/p>\n
That mattered.<\/p>\n
The Dawson trust is legally yours because the underlying assets belonged to Margaret before Walter misused them.<\/p>\n
But you should know something before deciding whether to claim it.<\/p>\n
Here it was.<\/p>\n
The reason Richard had warned me.<\/p>\n
If you claim the trust privately, you can receive its current value without public disclosure through a settlement already negotiated with federal authorities.<\/p>\n
If you claim it publicly through litigation, the entire historic record will become available and may help unidentified victims locate one another.<\/p>\n
My hands went still.<\/p>\n
Private inheritance.<\/p>\n
Or public record.<\/p>\n
Money versus exposure was too simple.<\/p>\n
This was privacy versus truth.<\/p>\n
Not only mine.<\/p>\n
Other people\u2019s.<\/p>\n
Richard continued.<\/p>\n
I do not know what the moral answer is.<\/p>\n
That sentence surprised me more than almost anything.<\/p>\n
Richard always thought he knew.<\/p>\n
Some victims may not want their histories reopened.<\/p>\n
Others may have spent decades wondering what happened.<\/p>\n
I have spent too much of my life deciding for people without their consent.<\/p>\n
I will not decide this.<\/p>\n
I sat back.<\/p>\n
For the first time, Richard\u2019s uncertainty felt more honest than all his certainty.<\/p>\n
Then came the section I had feared.<\/p>\n
About our marriage.<\/p>\n
Annie, I did not propose because Margaret asked me to.<\/p>\n
I did not propose because Daniel asked me to.<\/p>\n
I did not propose to secure your silence or gain access to anything.<\/p>\n
I proposed because the first time Emily fell asleep on my sofa with a chess piece in her fist, I realized I had begun thinking of both of you as home.<\/p>\n
Tears came quietly.<\/p>\n
I let them.<\/p>\n
That does not make the proposal fair.<\/p>\n
You were desperate.<\/p>\n
I knew it.<\/p>\n
I told myself I was offering safety.<\/p>\n
In truth, I wanted you to stay.<\/p>\n
I looked toward Richard\u2019s empty chair.<\/p>\n
All these years I had wondered whether love had emerged accidentally from an arrangement.<\/p>\n
Apparently it had.<\/p>\n
For both of us.<\/p>\n
I read the next lines through blurred vision.<\/p>\n
When you said yes, I was happy before I was ashamed.<\/p>\n
I should have been ashamed first.<\/p>\n
But I loved you before I understood what loving you required.<\/p>\n
It required telling you the truth.<\/p>\n
I failed at that until death made courage unnecessary.<\/p>\n
A laugh broke through my tears.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat sounds like you.\u201d<\/p>\n
The letter continued.<\/p>\n
Do not forgive me because I died.<\/p>\n
Do not hate yourself because you loved me.<\/p>\n
Those are separate things.<\/p>\n
I pressed my fingers to my mouth.<\/p>\n
No one had ever said that to me.<\/p>\n
Perhaps I had needed Richard himself to.<\/p>\n
Then:<\/p>\n
Mara may be alive when you read this.<\/p>\n
If she is, do not let either of us become evidence that the other loved you more.<\/p>\n
She lost you because of my decision.<\/p>\n
She stayed away because of her own.<\/p>\n
Both truths matter.<\/p>\n
Your father may also be alive.<\/p>\n
Walter is not a good man.<\/p>\n
He knows this.<\/p>\n
Whether he becomes useful in repairing what he helped destroy is for the law and the victims to decide, not me.<\/p>\n
Again.<\/p>\n
No instruction.<\/p>\n
Just truth.<\/p>\n
The final page concerned Daniel.<\/p>\n
Daniel deserved to know where you were.<\/p>\n
I deprived him of that.<\/p>\n
He spent years believing Walter stole you from him.<\/p>\n
I let him die without correcting that belief.<\/p>\n
That may be the ugliest thing I did.<\/p>\n
My chest tightened.<\/p>\n
I thought of a man I would never meet.<\/p>\n
An uncle who searched.<\/p>\n
Argued.<\/p>\n
Filed papers.<\/p>\n
Waited.<\/p>\n
And died believing he failed.<\/p>\n
Richard had carried that.<\/p>\n
Now so did I.<\/p>\n
The letter ended simply.<\/p>\n
There is no final locked room after this one, Annie.<\/p>\n
No more staged instructions.<\/p>\n
No person you must trust because I said so.<\/p>\n
No ending I wrote for you.<\/p>\n
Whatever happens next belongs to you.<\/p>\n
I am sorry.<\/p>\n
I loved you.<\/p>\n
Richard.<\/p>\n
I sat for a long time.<\/p>\n
The house creaked around me.<\/p>\n
Snow tapped softly against the windows.<\/p>\n
Eventually Mara appeared in the doorway.<\/p>\n
She did not enter.<\/p>\n
\u201cCan I come in?\u201d<\/p>\n
The question mattered.<\/p>\n
Permission.<\/p>\n
I nodded.<\/p>\n
She sat across from me.<\/p>\n
For a while, neither of us spoke.<\/p>\n
Then she looked at the letter.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe finally said it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat he was sorry without explaining why first.\u201d<\/p>\n
I smiled weakly.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat took him thirty years.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cFive years of marriage.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cStill terrible.\u201d<\/p>\n
I laughed.<\/p>\n
Then cried again.<\/p>\n
Mara waited.<\/p>\n
She did not touch me until I reached across the table first.<\/p>\n
Her hand was warm.<\/p>\n
Older.<\/p>\n
Real.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know what to do with you.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI know.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
I shook my head.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou don\u2019t get to say that.\u201d<\/p>\n
She nodded.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re right.\u201d<\/p>\n
I looked at her.<\/p>\n
\u201cI spent my whole life thinking you left.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI know what you were told.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSame problem.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou watched me.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou came to my town when I was twelve.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy didn\u2019t you take me?\u201d<\/p>\n
Her face crumpled.<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause Richard showed me photographs of Walter\u2019s people watching Daniel\u2019s old contacts.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSo you believed I would be safer.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDid you ever consider asking me?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou were twelve.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLater.\u201d<\/p>\n
She looked down.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was afraid you would hate me.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat was your reason?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cPartly.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThen you did exactly what Richard did.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
No excuse.<\/p>\n
I appreciated that.<\/p>\n
\u201cI do hate part of you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Her eyes filled.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re allowed.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI also want to know what songs you sang when you cooked.\u201d<\/p>\n
A tear slipped down her cheek.<\/p>\n
\u201cBad ones.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI heard.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou did?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cClaire said you couldn\u2019t carry a tune.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mara laughed.<\/p>\n
For the first time, the woman in front of me stopped feeling like a ghost.<\/p>\n
She felt human.<\/p>\n
Flawed.<\/p>\n
Embarrassed.<\/p>\n
Alive.<\/p>\n
Emily appeared beside her.<\/p>\n
\u201cCan we eat?\u201d<\/p>\n
I laughed harder than the question deserved.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNothing.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou adults cry a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mara said, \u201cWe missed meals.\u201d<\/p>\n
Emily nodded seriously.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat explains it.\u201d<\/p>\n
We went to the kitchen.<\/p>\n
Bennett had made sandwiches.<\/p>\n
Badly.<\/p>\n
One slice of bread had mustard across only half.<\/p>\n
Emily inspected it.<\/p>\n
\u201cGrandpa would complain.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHe complained about everything,\u201d Bennett said.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo. He had standards.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mara smiled.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe always did.\u201d<\/p>\n
For an hour, no one talked about kidnappings, ledgers, disappearances, or federal investigations.<\/p>\n
We ate.<\/p>\n
Emily told Mara about school.<\/p>\n
Mara told Emily that I used to hate peas.<\/p>\n
\u201cI still hate peas.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI know.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHow?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou made the same face at three.\u201d<\/p>\n
That hurt and comforted me at once.<\/p>\n
Later, after Emily fell asleep on the sofa, Bennett approached.<\/p>\n
\u201cFederal investigators are ready whenever you are.\u201d<\/p>\n
I looked at the key on the table.<\/p>\n
\u201cNot tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n
He nodded.<\/p>\n
No pressure.<\/p>\n
Another change.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat about Claire?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cPolice found her car near the bus station.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHer?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOwen?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cStable.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWalter?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTalking.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cElias?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLawyered up.\u201d<\/p>\n
I almost smiled.<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bennett looked toward Richard\u2019s letter.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat did he leave?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe choice.\u201d<\/p>\n
He understood more than I expected.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat may be the most unlike him thing he ever did.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
I picked up the flash drive.<\/p>\n
\u201cCan you help me review the victim list tomorrow?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNot as Richard\u2019s lawyer.\u201d<\/p>\n
He looked at me.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs mine.\u201d<\/p>\n
Something shifted in his expression.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019d be honored.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDo not make it sentimental.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cUnderstood.\u201d<\/p>\n
He almost smiled.<\/p>\n
After he left, Mara went upstairs to sleep in a guest room.<\/p>\n
I returned to the chessboard.<\/p>\n
Richard\u2019s black knight still sat in my hand.<\/p>\n
I placed it back.<\/p>\n
Not where he had left it.<\/p>\n
I moved it.<\/p>\n
One legal L-shaped turn.<\/p>\n
Around the pawns.<\/p>\n
A different direction.<\/p>\n
Emily had been right.<\/p>\n
Knights did not move straight.<\/p>\n
But they also did not have to follow the last person\u2019s path forever.<\/p>\n
My phone buzzed.<\/p>\n
Unknown number.<\/p>\n
For one terrible second, I expected another threat.<\/p>\n
Instead, it was Detective Harris.<\/p>\n
We identified the account used to pay the county clerk thirty years ago.<\/p>\n
I stared at the message.<\/p>\n
I typed:<\/p>\n
Whose?<\/p>\n
His reply came.<\/p>\n
Not Walter.
\nNot Richard.
\nNot Claire.
\nNot Thomas.<\/p>\n
My pulse quickened.<\/p>\n
Then:<\/p>\n
The authorization belongs to Daniel Hale.<\/p>\n
I stood.<\/p>\n
That made no sense.<\/p>\n
Richard\u2019s letter said Walter forged Daniel\u2019s access.<\/p>\n
Thomas\u2014Walter\u2014had said the same.<\/p>\n
But the investigators had apparently found something stronger.<\/p>\n
Another message.<\/p>\n
We also found an audio authorization attached to the original transfer.<\/p>\n
Audio.<\/p>\n
Daniel\u2019s voice.<\/p>\n
I stared toward the staircase.<\/p>\n
Mara had told me Daniel wanted me.<\/p>\n
Richard\u2019s entire confession assumed Daniel was trying to save me.<\/p>\n
If Daniel himself authorized payment connected to my transfer, then one last part of the story had never been resolved.<\/p>\n
I called Detective Harris.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat exactly did Daniel authorize?\u201d<\/p>\n
There was a pause.<\/p>\n
\u201cNot the bribery.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThen what?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cA second payment made the following morning.\u201d<\/p>\n
My hand tightened around the phone.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor what?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTemporary protective placement.\u201d<\/p>\n
My heartbeat slowed.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe knew Richard moved me?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe don\u2019t know.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat does the recording say?\u201d<\/p>\n
Another pause.<\/p>\n
Then the detective read the transcript.<\/p>\n
My name is Daniel Hale. If Richard is right and Walter knows the north route, move Anna now. Do not tell Margaret until she is stable.<\/p>\n
I closed my eyes.<\/p>\n
Richard had not acted alone.<\/p>\n
Daniel had known.<\/p>\n
At least at the beginning.<\/p>\n
The uncle I had imagined as the only person denied every choice had participated in the first one.<\/p>\n
Not the years after.<\/p>\n
Not the lies.<\/p>\n
But the initial disappearance.<\/p>\n
I looked at Richard\u2019s letter.<\/p>\n
There is no final locked room after this one.<\/p>\n
Maybe not.<\/p>\n
But truth itself had layers.<\/p>\n
And tomorrow, I would have to learn why Richard carried all the blame for a decision Daniel had helped make.<\/p>\n
For once, though, no one had left instructions telling me when I was allowed to ask.<\/p>\n
We returned to Richard\u2019s house after midnight. Police remained outside. Mara came with me. Bennett too. Walter was taken into custody for questioning, though detectives had already begun discussing cooperation … <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":26225,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-26241","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-insightdrama"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/insightdrama.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26241","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/insightdrama.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/insightdrama.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/insightdrama.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/insightdrama.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=26241"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/insightdrama.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26241\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":26276,"href":"https:\/\/insightdrama.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26241\/revisions\/26276"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/insightdrama.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/26225"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/insightdrama.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=26241"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/insightdrama.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=26241"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/insightdrama.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=26241"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
