Her story

Cipher arrived at the hospital one night through a window nobody remembered leaving open, and nobody has seen her face since. She speaks in riddles, leaves cryptic clues on the whiteboard and steals every pen in the doctors' room. Some say she was a code-breaker once.

Others say she's just a cat. She doesn't confirm either, but the crossword on Saturday always has her pawprints on it.
