A story from India that's like a more awesome version of two different Grimm fairy tales. A woman is promised in marriage to a stranger and we learn that, yeah, that's actually a pretty terrible idea.

The creature is the reason why you don't want pigeons to pity you.

Disclaimer

A woman has a child who's a literal tiger cub (?) and she and her brothers cut the cub in half off camera and leave him suspended over a fire. It's not graphic, but it exists. Also we mention that a character is a rapist (he is).
