Suppressed European History... "Comprachicos"... this is Dark

[Busted_Toes]

"Comprachicos are supposed groups in folklore who were said to change the physical appearance of human beings by manipulating growing children, in a similar way to the horticultural method of bonsai – that is, deliberate mutilation"

This is similar to Chinese foot binding or head binding but to the whole body to make them look like circus freaks to amuse the King.

"We no longer know the art of sculpting human flesh". Many cosmetic surgeons would disagree with that
