As Rhett stared at the picture, what he saw was a normal family of five smiling happily with Cora. What could have gone wrong with them or prompted them to jeopardize everything they had all stood for?
"One more question, Cora." Rhett proposed. "Tell me about this family. Who they were… all of that."
Cora had fallen into an emotional state. She sniffed. "They — were good people." She gave a bitter laugh. "I mean, they were just the typical kind of fairy family. Aella would always invite me in to come spend time with them as I have no family of my own. You see, she doesn't want me to feel lonely. And this family, her family — they would treat me right, feed me even and you would never be able to tell that we weren't related. It's so sad that bad things happen to good people." She wiped a tear off. "Aella and her family are innocent. I can bet my life on it. Something must have happened. Someone must have taken them."
