When Mrs Crow was little, she lived in town with her wealthy family. She was always taught to show mannerism towards family, friends and stranger, and therefore grew up resenting herself when her emotions got the best of her. When life got to difficult, she’d usually isolate herself for a short period of time before stepping up and keeping her smile wide. She also grew up encouraged by her parents to look for a husband and settling quickly.

When she graduated from school, she quickly went off to college. It was then that she found an interest in playing instruments and painting. She’d make painting and show the in art shows, winning multiple awards. She hid these hobbies from her parents, as they looked down on artistry. It wasn’t until she won a big contest at an art show where Mrs Crows parents found out about it and decided to cut contact. Mrs Crow however, didn’t mind. She finished her studies and left the town, never seeing it again.

Mrs Crow traveled all around the country, eager to see the world. When she visited the Northern wheat fields was when she met a fellow called Mr Pig. She had dated several creatures before, but it was different this time. She fell hard and they quickly started going out. It started out good, but Mrs Crow started noticing weird behaviour from Mr Pig. It started small, with violent remarks and threats to other farmers, but eventually Mr Pig started acting violent and showing manic behaviour. After many conversations and attempts to reason with him, Mrs Crow understood that the relationship wouldn’t work. One morning, Mrs Crow wrote a letter to Mr Pig, detailing how she needed to leave because of his mental health, and left. Never looking back.

Many years after leaving Mr Pig, Mrs Crow was visiting the western feather town. It was completely inhabited by birds, yet Mrs Crow didn’t feel completely comfortable with their lifestyle. Dangerous, hungry birds surrounded her at all times and she was just about to leave before a stranger took her hand. This stranger was Mr Crow. Mr Crow had grabbed her as to ask if she was the one who won the big art contest from several years ago. When she nodded, he praised her work and told her about his interest of playing music and making sculptures, another form of art. With their shared interests, Mrs Crow and Mr Crow quickly started dating. It only took a year before they knew how perfect they were together, so they travelled to the Northern Fields together to seek a home. When they found the perfect place, they built a house, had a private wedding and lived happily ever after… or, what they thought would be happily ever after.

Mrs Crow would eventually have a baby. The couples excitement for the baby was huge and they could barely wait for its arrival. On the day she conceived the baby, she was physically exhausted and longing to meet her daughter. But when the doctor stepped inside, he was empty handed. He proceeded to tell Mrs Crow that her child had gone missing, as well as Mr Crow.

Mrs Crow was destroyed at the disappearance of her husband and child. Her friend Mrs Pigeon urged that he had left, which only made Mrs Crow sadder. She lashed out and locked herself in her house out of shame and grief, not showing her face. 40 years passed, with no signs of life. Every knock on the door was ignored. Every letter sent went unread. Every person trying to reach her would get no response.

After the 40 years, Mrs Crow looked through her old letters. Some were from Mr Pig, detailing how he had gotten much better and was interested in meeting both her and Mr Crow, to introduce his wife. Most of the other letters were advertisements and seemingly pointless junk, until she found one letter from only a day ago. The letter was from a family asking for a place where their child could stay for a week due to unspecified reasons. Mrs Crow, in desperate need of fulfilling a parental role quickly responded to the letter, urgently asking to be considered for the job. 

The family quickly gave her the occupation and she quickly regained her excitement. But before she could meet the child, Mr Pig had returned, but changed. His hair cut, his body injured and his mind lost. He was back to marry Mrs Crow. He had left his wife to die and seeked to finally achieve his dream family, which was with Mrs Crow. At Mrs Crows obvious rejecting, he grew aggressive and dragged Mrs Crow to the shed. In the shed, he explained his plan of creating a family. When finding out about the child, he happily suggested that the child become their kid. He dressed up as Mrs Crow and left her in the shed. During all this, Mrs Crow grew afraid and scared, terrified of the implications of Mr Pigs plans. She stayed in the shed for 5 days, occasionally fed. Her despair grew, wondering if she’d ever escape.
