Winter thought about his words, all of them, for a long silent moment before she nodded. She too felt hate for whoever had done that, but more so, for anyone directly posing a threat. While she had been turned, it was not the worst that could have happened, as she learned and she was glad to have the girl alive and in her life. But more than she hated that vampire, she felt herself loathing Zelly's parents, as if they had performed some great evil that she couldn't put into words. Seeing them, speaking to them, all these times had filled her with such a great unease that the thought left a sour taste on her tongue.
"It is not fair." And her tone was surprisingly somber, as if the weight of it all was dragging the words off of her lips leaving them tumbling aimlessly in the air. "I find the world of man rarely is, in all that we have seen and done." A second or two passed as she crossed her arms, tucking them tight against her ribs, a subtle sort of self-comfort. The world of man had been as wonderful, and yet as dreaded, as both of her parents had warned her.
"For all I wish it did not happen, in some ways perhaps it is a blessing that in all the ways it did happen, it happened like this. That she found you, and the both of you found us. She is no longer alone in the world, and I think for Zelly that is all she wanted." A dry sort of breath, a few loose strands of red twisting and flicking upward before fluttering back down to rest against her cheek.
"I do not understand why this... creature has decided to mark Zelly as he has, but at least we are here to make sure he does not hurt her beyond that."
