Wednesday had not been happy to be sent to Nevermore Academy after being expelled from his eighth school in less than two years, a record he wore like a badge of morbid pride. He suspected, not without reason, that it was another cruel scheme by his parents: a ploy to lock him into a tomb of their own design, complete with gravestones carved in their meticulously twisted image.
