The Mother (she/her) is a woman in her mid-30’s who bears the heavy burden of trying to look after her son alone after the death of her husband. Tired, sad, and beside herself with worry; she cares deeply about her boy and will do everything in her power to protect him.
BOY: I–I heard him, mom. // MOTHER: …Who? // BOY: Daddy. He asked me to follow him. // MOTHER: Oh, honey…you must have had a dream. I miss him, too.
MOTHER: He’s resting now, Doctor. // DOCTOR: Good. Here, meet our guests. Amara, Ellis, and—? // KEEPER (awkwardly): –just ‘Keep’ is fine. // MOTHER (a bit wary): …Welcome. I wish the circumstances were better
DOCTOR: What’s the matter? Wait–where’s your boy? // MOTHER (frantic): I don’t know! (Calling out) Cade? Where are you?!
