➤ Alias: The Woman Who Forgot the Sun
➤ Origin: A Kent village near the hop fields, 1950s
Before Captivity:
Peggy was the eldest of five siblings in a bustling family of seasonal hop pickers. Kind, quiet, and responsible, she dreamed of becoming a schoolteacher. At thirteen, she loved writing stories and walking through the woods alone. One late summer evening in 1952, she followed strange laughter into a shaded grove and never came back.
In Faylinn:
Peggy was transformed into a sun-dried petal doll, a living ornament perched in a shelf-niche of a twilight parlour. She was conscious, though unable to speak or move, watching decades tick by in the flicker of enchanted candlelight. Her skin, too delicate for sunlight, was made to shimmer in shadow. Time in Faylinn slowed and fragmented—she forgot the feeling of warmth and forgot what the sun looked like. She was one of many “silent children” displayed as decor in a noble fae house.
After Return:
She reappeared a week later in mortal time—though she had lived decades. She was physically unchanged but began showing allergic reactions to sunlight. Her speech became sparse, her eyes slow to blink, and she developed a habit of standing too still. She became a schoolteacher but retired early. Now, she lives in a shuttered house, journaling in a forgotten dialect of Old Kentish and drawing strange floral patterns.
