dream - 002
Arietta sits on the ground, clothed only in a tattered dress. She is chained up, keeping the feral child from escaping or hurting anyone. A tall man stands next to her, as a much younger boy watches the girl curiously.
But the boy gets too close, and Arietta lunges; she bites the boy's forearm hard, breaking the skin and holding on tight with her teeth. But, to her surprise, the boy is unphased by the bite. He turns to the older man and says something- something unintelligible to the young girl, who has no understanding of human language- before turning back to the wild girl with a strange smile on his face.
