In a world where justice often fails the vulnerable, what lengths would you go to protect those who cannot protect themselves? This question forms the beating heart of "Scythe & Sparrow," where we meet Rose-known as "The Sparrow"-a circus performer with a secret mission. Behind her tarot readings and motorcycle stunts lies a woman dedicated to helping abused women escape their tormentors. But when a confrontation with Matt Cranwell, an abusive husband, goes horribly wrong, Rose's life takes a dramatic turn. The encounter leaves Rose severely injured and stranded when her circus moves on without her. What makes her vigilantism so compelling isn't bloodlust but genuine compassion-she sees herself as providing justice where the system has failed. Like Giulia Tofana, the 17th-century woman who made poison for abused wives, Rose's mission is about protection, not revenge. But once you start down this path, where do you draw the line? And what happens when someone sees your darkness and, instead of turning away, embraces it?
