Alari (My smedry HG character)'s brother, Neftur, steps back into his house, which is one of the better looking in the district. Since Alari had placed his name in the games so many times the family was pretty well off, although this is in comparison to the other districts, not to real life.
He walks up to his bedroom, once his and Alari's but now just his. he had it all to himself.
He hears his parents, Emi and Geroth, talking in their room and he catches a few words.
"Look, if we hadn't forced him, we wouldn't have any of this." His father, Geroth, said.
"... ... ... want two sons. You shouldn't have (Too quiet to hear)"
"Fine, Emi. But everything around you, everythign that lets us relax, that came from him."
Neftur burst into their room. "You forced Alari into the games? Why? WHY! I thought my brother wanted to be in the games, I thought he wanted to prove himself. Instead, after he's been reaped and he's suren' to die within the week, I learn that my paretns forced my brother into the games?"
(His parents kick him out of the house next, but I didn't want to describe the whole thing since this is a long post.)
