Today is Thursday.

As the soldiers drove a wagon full of spoons, bowls and kettles to the dungeon, a little girl, Miggery Sow sat besides the soldier's. She hadn't known that she would instrumental helping Chiaroscuro work his revenge. Who is the girl? She was born many years before Despereaux and Chiaroscuro. When she was six years old, her mother died and her father sold her to a man for a hen, a handful of cigarettes and a red tablecloth. We all know who her father was, the prisoner. Mig called the man who purchased her uncle. She had to do many chores for him being paid back for nothing but sometimes a clout to her ears.  As she was given clouts so often, her ears came to resemble not so much ears as pieces of cauliflower stuck to either side of her head. She could hear less and less, then she could do right less and less, then she was given more and more clouts, and that made her hear less and less. This is called vicious circle and she was in the center of the circle.
