Prompt

Set a fictional train-platform story in [ERA] with three sealed letters described only by their intended purpose, not their text. The player has [TIME LIMIT] before departure and may deliver one, reroute one, and leave one safely held. Give two choices per turn, a visible time counter, and an ending receipt for each letter. Do not force opening mail, invent a real address, or make a late choice retroactively early. Check that the time budget and letter custody remain consistent across all branches.
