The young woman listened quietly then looked up when Ross finished. "I uh...I am adopted. As my parents tell me, they found me near a shrine to an ancient Pokemon. My mother says that my father was the one that found me. They raised mw with their two older boys. We lived a quiet enough life, but I was bullied a lot. Gabite, he was a Gible then, was just as protective of me as he is now. We ended up moving to Orre when he hospitalized a boy that...well...let's just say it wasn't going to be pretty." she paused and sighed deeply. 

"I was a burden to them. A responsibility that I felt they didn't need. I ran away from here for a few months, Gible followed me. When I returned, my brothers gave me this one." she patted her Metang happily. "Shortly after that...Cipher tortured and killed my eldest brother. He was an outspoken man, and he made sure Cipher knew that he hated everything they stood for." her voice grew quiet. 

"He was never violent, never raised a hand against them. They captured him, tortured him, then dismembered him...then left a box with his body at my home. As a message."
