 +The brilliance adorning her white hair drew all eyes,\\
 +And its proud original owner arrived to stake their claim.
 +
 +The bet that the girl won with a brilliant trick\\
 +Is described as a thief's loot through lying schemes.
 +
 +The old woman, in her panic, shouldered the blame,\\
 +Confirming a sin that was but a fabrication.\\
 +//<color #efe4B0>"By Dolos's laws, we must also execute all her family!"</color>//
 +
 +To protect the girl, the old woman reveals the final secret unseen:\\
 +//<color #efe4B0>"She's not my family, but just an orphan picked from the street on a whim."</color>//
 +
 +People thought this to be a lie,\\
 +But the girl knows her grandmother cannot deceive.\\
 +Just like how she always glossed over questions about parents and kin โ€”
 +
 +//<color #efe4B0>"Your parents... went to a city-state far away."</color>//\\
 +The girl never bothered to unravel the threadbare lie.

 +The lies overthrow the shop,\\
 +And tear apart the good woman's good name,\\
 +Leaving the girl with guilt and grief.
 +
 +The hearth of her home was a lie,\\
 +Doused by another conceit.\\
 +But if her sleight of hand had better skill,\\
 +Would it have made that fire burn forever?
 +
 +The girl pulls down the hood and sinks into the starless dark.\\
 +//<color #993333>"I vow to the god of thieves..."</color>//\\
 +And from that day, she never left empty-handed, her words woven with deceit.
 +
 +However, back then the girl did not realize\\
 +That the people did not covet one simple pin,\\
 +But the <color #993333>golden blood</color> flowing beneath her skin.
