However, Jonah Breakspear, who succeeded his father as chancellor, launched a war on non-humans. Carnival Row’s residents were herded into The Burgue, which is currently used as a concentration camp. When Philo noticed Vignette on the other side of the barrier, he said, “I am critch,” and he went to join Vignette and the other fae in Carnival Row.
