Evelyn’s Tether 

Evelyn’s Tether is an attachment for a child’s shoe that allows their guardian to keep track of them in large groups. The bell gives an auditory sign that the child is near, and should they get out of hearing range, the small powder case on the back will drop a trail for the guardian to follow, or for the child to follow back to their guardian.

Evelyn wandered off one day and Duncan couldn’t find her for hours. He eventually found her petting the goats by the market. He vowed that he would never lose her again, and made this attachment to prevent that from ever happening again. The silver panels depict a heartbreaking story that Duncan didn’t have the strength to tell Evelyn. But he hopes that one day when she is older, that she will put the pieces together and learn the truth that he couldn’t tell her years back.
