"No... as in a body was created to house the soul. ... Or well... part of the soul. It's witchy magic mumbo-jumbo bullshit, probably not too interesting to hear about."

Why does she feel so weird about saying it?

She's not sure.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that she'd only ever told one person here about Cheryl and Alessa, that she'd once been one soul split between two bodies, and that person is gone.

Either way, she's waving a hand as though dismissing the subject.

"What's with this desert, anyway?"
