A pensive look rests on Volka’s face as you continue down the corridor. “I… still wonder about them, y’know?” Her big yellow eyes blink. “My mom and pop, that is.” Another pause. “... the real ones.”

Did she ever think about looking for them? Volka shrugs.

“Every day.” She nods. “I love Ma and Volkir an’ all, but that doesn’t stop me from… from wondering, y’know?”

Totally, you smirk. You can barely remember your own parents, let alone the rest of your family. “Ha!” Laughs the gentle giant, “That makes two of us, doesn’t it? Just a coupla’ weirdos…”

That’s putting it mildly, you fire back! Sharing a few snickers, you steal a glance at Volka out of the corner of your eye and find her in ‘thinking mode’ again… and yes, she looks very uncomfortable.

“Scary though, ain’t it?” She remarks with a bit of a shiver, “Knowing your family could be, well… bad.”

Yea, you frown. It’s all you can think of saying, really.

“Tzah-Tzie’s must be real bad if she talks about ‘em like that…” Volka continues with a sad look in her eyes. “I hear a lotta’ stuff about Durhers–mean stuff mostly–but one thing I hear all the time is that family is…” Her tail thumps the ground behind her. “Well, it’s one of the most important things to them.”

Huh.

You feel the Skog’s eyes fall upon you again like a pair of spotlights! “What’s most important to you, Rook?”

Sheesh, someone’s getting philosophical today, huh?
