Gloom and Hope

I read the Steelhead papers with much sadness. Creaky Gloom has found his way to Steelhead and claimed the life of at least one child. I watch my daughter Wren play with her pet rabbit and wonder...

Could I use her as bait to catch the sluagh? She's proven herself to be fearless. Hide a weapon in her rags...hmmm...no. The glow of her gaslamp heart will give her away. To say nothing of the fact that she's half made of iron.

Daughters...yes...that would solve this equation, wouldn't it? Power source...OF COURSE! POWER SOURCE! This will change everything...this will change...EVERYTHING!!!!
