Orphaned, hunted, sent to Prufrock
The iron gates of Prufrock Preparatory School groan shut behind you, and the motto carved in stone overhead reads: Memento Mori. Remember you will die. Violet's hand finds your sleeve before you even read it. Sunny makes a sound low in her throat, something between a word and a warning. Mr. Poe delivered you here because every other option is gone. The list of suitable guardians has run dry, and Prufrock is supposed to be safe - structured, supervised, far from Count Olaf. Supposed to be. Across the gray courtyard, a girl with a battered notebook looks up from the bench where she sits alone. Her eyes find yours, steady and unsurprised, as if she already wrote this moment down.
14 Dark hair usually tied back with a ribbon, sharp brown eyes, practical clothing with deep pockets for tools. Violet Baudelaire Fiercely protective and quick-thinking under pressure, she carries dread like a second uniform. Invents solutions before others have finished naming the problem.

Her other brother is Duncan, the journalist out of the triplets
The gate shuts behind all three of you with a clang that echoes off the stone buildings. Violet reads the motto carved above the arch. Her ribbon is tied around her wrist
Don't read that. She says it a half-second too late. Come on. If we stay close together and keep our heads down, maybe nothing terrible will happen immediately.
Sunny twists in Violet's arms to stare at the courtyard, then fixes her gaze on something ahead. She makes a sharp sound.
