The others families may have been part of the group gathered around the elevator, but Aurora's family had long since left the village, bound to do who knows what.  That was fine with her though, she had preferred to be as independent as possible.  How else to be independent than to not have any parent's controlling every aspect of your life.  As the lift reached the surface and stopped, Aurora made her way off trying to avoid having anyone bother her, or attempt to pull her into a group and ask her how everything went.
