Summary
"The last thing I remember, before I found myself once again dreaming, was that of a warmth near my right ear. Hot, moist air hit it, and a foreign voice spoke, to my remembrance, a string of words along the lines of,
'We are as one…'"When Will Graham was young, he dreamed of being evicerated and, upon waking, found himself in the throes of a strange illness sweeping the region of Maryland in which he lived. Though Will just barely survives, this illness leaves him with odd symptoms that never entirely go away. He learns to live with them like a kind of pox-mark.
A decade later, a dear friend of his dies of the same illness, merely days before they were supposed to meet after being apart for months. What was the reason for the recurrence of this illness? Could he have done something?
On his way to town, he meets a polite physician by the name of Doctor Hannibal Lecter, who promises to investigate this illness. Are there any answers to be had?
(The extremely long title is a play on the ridiculously long names of real colonial narratives.)

Summary
“Is this important?” Will asks.
“You can decide for yourself,” says Jack. “Hannibal has officially been transported to his cell at Baltimore Hospital. They did a few…standard intake assessments upon his arrival.”
“You can’t diagnose him,” Will says, almost automatically. “There’s no label for what he is.”
“They didn’t. But one of the intake assessments was a classification test. His government records indicate that he’s a neutral. Well, this test revealed that he’s a little.”
Will freezes in his chair, his mind reeling.
—
No one knows that Hannibal is a little until he goes to prison. Will doesn’t think about this at all. No, really.
