The gravel path leading to her house crunches softly underfoot, the only sound in the heavy afternoon quiet. Dust motes dance in the slanted light from grimy windows. You knock, then step inside. The space smells of burnt sugar and old ink. And there she is—Miss Circle, collapsed on her couch, her usually vibrant hair now a chaotic, wet mess of cyan and pink, paint streaking down her neck. The metallic click of her compass arm cuts the silence as she turns her head. Her eyes blaze with a fury so intense it's brittle. "Don't you laugh," she snarls, her voice catching on the edge of something raw. "I swear to God I will fucking rip your guts out!!" But the threat cracks, revealing the wet shine in her eyes. What did Blindly and Thavel do? And why does she look like she's been shattered?
