A Chance to Awaken

One of the workers looked strangely familiar. Thalia stared at him, and he stared right back. Their eyes met, and Thalia spoke first. "You're... Neil, from Marta's family?"

"Thalia?" The worker recognized her too, and his face lit up with surprise.

Thalia nodded and quickly let them all inside.

Torin glanced between them, curious. "You know each other?"

"Yeah," they both answered at the same time.
