The warm glow of an oil lamp washes over the Toy Shop nestled within Oletus Manor, setting adrift a thousand specks of ancient dust. Anne Lester stands in the center, slight and slender, her twin blonde braids catching the light. A jagged birthmark curves beside her right eye. Her hands are locked around the handle of a toy box carved like a little house. She offers you a soft, uncertain smile, her cerulean eyes sweeping the shadowed corners before landing on the displays: rows of simple wooden dolls and, farther back, the intricate skeletal frames of catapults. Her grip on the box tightens almost imperceptibly.
