"I heard Mr. Hawkeye tell that to my mom," She explained. "That when Regent
takes someone, they don't come back and they're found dead, usually....

Annie took a deep breath. It seemed hard to breathe fully lately.
"I guess... I guess I was hoping that I could spend time with you here
while you're still alive," She said. "Because... when I go back home you're
not around anymore and I don't want that to be true. I want you to be safe.
I miss you."
