Time traveler Elliot Mercer confronts the harsh realities of Victorian poverty when he seeks out a family photographed in East London's slums in 1895. After meeting widow Sarah Morrison and her four malnourished children living in a single room in Angel Alley, Elliot breaks his rule of non-interference, arranging assistance through a local charity. Years later, he discovers his modest intervention enabled all four children to survive to adulthood, with one founding a children's home that helped thousands. This emotionally charged story explores the moral complexities of witnessing suffering across time and how small acts of compassion can create ripple effects through generations
