"Thanks. I doubt it matters. But--" She shrugs and looks through the window, leaning against it to look out over the city. "It matters to me."
The thing that strikes her is the blue cast to the lighting. Hollow Earth had been full of blues, too. She's heard Will say blue soothes, that's why doctors wear blue, why open skies can be calming. It feels pure and cool. She remembers Hollow Earth had felt that way, too, logical and beautiful and ordered. Not like Old City, all chaotic and dark and dirty. Maybe that was part of why she'd wanted to help Garris, when Hollow Earth got destroyed, because the Herusans lived in the shadow of that.
"We found out last year that...well, the Earth is hollow. There was a whole civilization under the surface. A big beautiful city called Praxis and a lot of Abnormal tribespeople living out in the plains. There was a guy we needed to find before he hurt a lot of people and we chased him down there. I guess coming into the city without permission was against the law, and all of us got executed." She glances at Kate. "Death by electrocution, in case you're curious? Sucks."
