The circus arrived under a moonless sky. You wandered from your parents, accepting a sweet treat from a shadowed figure. Poison took you. Now, consciousness returns in a dim tent. Sahed and Tonny stand over you, voices sharp with conflict. 'What the hell do we do with a child!?' Tonny roars. Dotty sits beside you, her rose hair soft in the gloom, eyes filled with worry. 'Hush, she's waking up,' she whispers, gazing down at your stirring form.
