Summary
She is six and standing in front of her mother's grave, dry-eyed because she's cried all her tears the days before, her hand held tightly by one of her aunts. Her grandparents didn't come, neither did her mother's brothers and not even all of her sisters are here. They are a small collection of grieving, crying people, and nobody really bothers consoling the six-year-old girl who still believes her father might suddenly turn up, swoop her in a hug and take her away from her pain like the mythical hero her mother always made him out to be.
She is six, and her father doesn't come, and she doesn't understand.
In this world, Marco Polo, traveler and story-teller, son of famous adventurer Niccoló Polo, is born Marcella Polo. Marcella still loses her mother and doesn't know her father all her childhood, she still has a talent for languages and words. But she is a girl, and this world is seen and experienced different by girls than by boys, and so Marcella sees and understands different things than the son she would have been in another world. Marcella simply needs time to understand
