"What happened to your homeworld?"

"It was in a sort of pocket dimension, which was collapsed and destroyed by one of its gods. My best friend was involved somehow, though I never found out exactly how."

TAAron returned to silence as they walked. He might have teleported to the city to get out of the rain, but he couldn't be sure how the locals would take that. Unfortunately, he had no idea how to apply his powers to shield Haly and himself from the pelting drops either.
