Weird things happen on the train. They're probably kind of used to it by now. Sometimes you wake up in the morning (as far as there are 'mornings' on the train, anyway) and suddenly everything is different.
Today is one of those mornings, apparently. Because while Roland may be waking up to find himself very much his usual self, there's obviously something wrong as he makes his way across the train. There are plenty of people who seem the same as ever, but there are some exceptions - some people looking older than before, or younger than before. And not just a little bit either, no, noticably so.
.. that may be slightly worrying, huh? If it's worrying enough for him to start looking for certain people, then Roland may end up in luck.
Or not, depending on how you view it. Because while Inigo is not hard to find at all - he's right there in one of the corridors of the sleeper carriages - it's.. very obviously not Inigo the way he usually is.
Because this Inigo looks like he can't be much older than three, maybe four years old at best. Thankfully it seems that his train outfit has shrug down to still fit him, now wearing a very tiny purple hoodie, but that's definitely a small, small child. Only the unique dark blue hair and the Brand still visible in one of his eyes make it obvious that it's Inigo, waddling around by himself.
And after a moment, he seems to realise that there's someone there, like a much taller shadow looming over him. The tiny boy looks up, staring blankly. It seems at first like he has nothing to say, won't even react.
But then he holds out his tiny arms. Upwards, in Roland's direction. "Daddy!"
.. well, at least it seems that not all of his memories are gone if he does remember that much.
