Watch ’em through the glass first. If they ask for me but don’t say my name right—Ellyn, not Ellen or Ellie—don’t trust a word out their mouth. If they say they’re from the Keep, ask ’em who braided your hair last Winter Solstice. If they can’t answer, bolt the door and don’t let them in. I know you’re brave. Braver than me, some days. But there’s things walking the roads now that wear borrowed smiles. Don’t you forget now Mia.Script 2Welcome to Mary's Well.Thank you for choosing to sit your exam at the York competence test centre.When you arrive at the building, please proceed up the stairs to floor C.
