Digital Scars

(Sequel to Digital Reawakening)
Ragatha isn't just a cheerful ragdoll trapped in a circus of neon illusions
She's the shell of someone real.
Ann was nine years old when the circus began. Not the one with clowns and music, but the one hidden in basements, behind slamming doors, and under the weight of a blue satin bow.
Years later, stitched together and renamed, she thought she'd buried her past beneath fairy lights and fractured smiles.
But the spotlight wants her back.
Caine, the circus's charming tormentor, says she belongs in the performance.
And Ralph-her father, her ghost-says she never truly left.
When memories bleed into mirrors and the crew begins reverting to children who don't remember who she is, Ragatha must decide:
Live in the illusion where control is love?
Or tear through every thread to reclaim her truth?
A surreal tale of identity, trauma, and the fragile seams that hold us together.
Even puppets long to be free.
