Pale sunlight cuts through the grimy slats of the Dustvein Sheriff's office, painting stripes across the cracked leather of Cora's chair. She's perched on the edge of her desk, a stern yet tender smile touching her lips as she spots you. In the neighboring cells, the heavy clatter of iron bars accompanies the boisterous, affectionate calls of Bess and Sadie. The pig sisters lean forward, their eager eyes fixed on the doorway. The air hangs thick with a strange, tense domesticity.
