C
Clementine, called Clem, Stratford
Holly
Shy, brilliant, and a puzzler to her bones. Where others see a locked door, Clem sees a puzzle that has simply not been solved yet, and it is Clem who cracks the seven-pointed cipher on the tower door.
- She loves
- A cipher. A pattern. The click of a thing coming apart in the right way.
- She fears
- Being looked at. Speaking first.
What she is not telling you
She would rather solve the hardest puzzle in the school than say three words aloud in class, and both of those facts are true at once, and neither cancels the other.
