Now that I have established that it must be my own actions which bring me justice, I have considered a possible solution to it. His wrongs to me have been like a fire, slowly burning me until it is too much to bear. This feeling I must make him feel that feeling as he slowly feels his flesh being burned, and his life stripped from him. Yes, a fire should do quite nicely, that will make him understand. Imagine his surprise when he awakes in the dead of night encircled by walls of flames, unable to get out. Of course, the fire must start in his cellar where he keeps all his wine. Let all of it be the fuel that feeds the flames. With all that fuel it will spread quickly, and he will have no chance of escape. Fire will also burn all the evidence, and ensure that I am not connected to it. Though, there is just one problem with this method. The inferno would kill more than just Fortunato, and thus would not be true justice. Killing the others would detract from the meaning of his death, he must die alone, knowing that it is I who does it to him. There must be a way to achieve this, but that method eludes me as of yet…
