Haha.  Right.  The people outside of the Zone have much better prices and such since it is usually safe.  Makes the greedy and criminal lyat after it even more.  Is why getting out to it when you live in the Zone is tricky.  

Something I thought of was that Damia has the control gene true but her mutation cloaks her from Nathan.  That way he has never sensed that she can do that just that she is a dreamer too.   Something like than maybe.  Or she just might be smarter and know more About it so she has better control and can hide it from him.  What u think?
