He asked the one question that she hoped he wouldn't. She plays with the fireplace some more before she finally finds the courage to answer. "It was a rough time. We were being invaded my Wyldstorms. Everyone that was old enough had to go out to help hold up the barrier, like today. Mom and Dad were on their duty when one of the others fell, they had been out there for hours and their strength was leaving them. They couldn't get the hole covered fast enough." Her voice breaks as she continues, "Once one Wydlstorm got in they knew there was going to be trouble. One snuck in so the barrier continued to break down as more and more of the people holding it up went to help fight the wydlstorm, it was so late that it took awhile for others to come to help. Unfortunately my parents were right where the hole was and weren't strong enough to keep the wydlstorms under control. They got trampled by a group of them as they broke through." By the time she finished she had a fire started and had moved to curl up next to the couch at the other end from Dugan facing him. She hid her face from him because she was embarrassed by her emotions. She finally decided to just look into the fire and watch the flames.
