Choosing to lie down on the grass, Ange answered him as she looked up at the sky.

"Back when I was younger, just learning how to shunt, before I'd even had any training in anything, I had one."

Grabbing a bit of grass in her hand, she began idly tugging at it, letting it slip through her fingers.

"I'd found it one day, after falling out of a tree. My mother used to be a huntress, retired a few years before this happened. When I told her about it, she offered to teach me, coach me for the same thing. So she started training me, except I couldn't do it again. After a bit, we stopped for the day, to have dinner. I stayed outside, looking at a tree."

Halting the movements of her hand, Ange twisted her head to face Carol.

"I climbed the tree, to see if I could do it again. I slipped, got my leg stuck by a branch. But it worked, whatever I did made me shunt. I nearly ripped my leg off."

Facing the sky again, she rubbed her left leg.

"This thigh, the skin and muscles were torn to bits. At the hospital, half the doctors said I'd lose my leg, the other half said I'd die of blood loss. When I went into surgery, they found out there wasn't any major damage to the bone, and the muscle was healing well, because of the lack of physical trauma. Saved by the very thing that caused the injury."
