There had once been a clan of entertainers who roamed the land. They were a family from a land far to the east with abilities that allowed them to create objects, seemingly out of thin air. It was that ability and their long, golden hair that made them stand out from the rest of the common folk. Everywhere the entertainers went, they would be met with crowds—from young children shouting with glee at the toy animals that sprung up in the town squares, to the adults who watched in wonder at the light shows that were performed at night. And almost as soon as they arrived, they would pack up and leave. As the ventured onward to the next town, the objects they created were left behind as the only proof they had even been there.

With abilities like theirs, it was only a matter of time before someone would seek to take it as their own. So when the family of entertainers was discovered one morning, their throats slit, their long, golden tresses shorn, and the new baby of the youngest couple vanished, people were shocked at the sight, but not surprised it had occurred.

Time went on and people forgot about the family with the long, golden hair. They forgot about the magical abilities and the traveling performances. And of course they forgot about the baby who had vanished while his family lay slain. They became mere stories that parents told their children about at night.
