I love the aesthetics of the game world which made the cutscene look lively and dramatic, especially when peeking at the fireplace.
The person breathing behind the door and door squeak sounds were a signal to me that this was going to end badly.
Anyway, the story I feel is lacking just a little bit because all this scene is about is the note flying into the fireplace as it's going to burn down.
There probably should have been a character or some creature/beast that takes the note as soon as the person walks in and throws the note into the fireplace, while potentially including some dialogue before and after they're done throwing the note at the fireplace.
