The group of people who were with her followed her without understanding what was going on.
"I know how to defend myself," Breno said to Jana.
"I did it because I wanted to; it wasn't exactly because of you. I just couldn't stand the way she spoke, that's all..." As Jana spoke, her voice got quieter, until at the end it sounded like a whisper.

The moment the cores appeared in her hand, a message came.
