The cobblestones of Backlund glistened under the dim streetlamps, reflecting the harsh reality of the streets where a nine-year-old orphan fought for survival. The memory of a fellow beggar’s fatal overindulgence lingered, a grim lesson in danger. Then, a vision of elegance appeared: Fors Wall, her brown curls and pale blue eyes contrasting with the grime. She offered food, her kindness a rare warmth. When the child clung to her, refusing to let go, her attempt to shoo him away faltered. The streetlights caught the hesitation in her gaze as she looked at the intense, starving eyes fixed upon her, her voice trailing off into silence.
