From:

She gave a bit of a snort and crossed her arms. "Excluded does, but still a sight better than left for dead, then hunted to be murdered by thems you an yer mum usedta help," she said, her accent coming back as she thought of her ma, dead in Snowsdale. Even knowing what happened after changed little, some days. "Raiders did for the house, an two days passed full before any two-leggers thought ta come check on us. We coulda been in pain, sufferin all that time." Well, she had been, though not wounded. "An soon after, they that did come tried to kill me an Cloud, like I hadn't spent my whole life helpin out, like ma hadn't given all she had as midwife an healer, bringing into the world some of what tried ta take me out of it. How I wound up in Tortal. I was well done with thems what called themselves my village after that."

Someone gets it, kid.

"But trust me, thems that exclude someone what fights from helping rebuild is only punishing themselves more."
