Legally, she wasn’t married, but people in her village said she was. She had a husband who hadn’t come back for years but would call her once or twice a year.

Her husband was Cale. The bodyguards and doctors tried asking her questions, but no matter what they said, the woman just looked scared and curled up in a corner of the bed, refusing to speak.

tell you something kindly. Your daughter’s been dead for a long time. I just took over her body.”
