"...I was the Veilwalker in mine," The woman steeled her resolve, her gaze locked in Alex's.
"When I was no older than fourteen, a cosmic mana wave swept over my home world, claiming the lives of everyone, including my parents.
"I was the only survivor and that was only because I was chosen."
Everyone at the table understood what she meant as Alex had undergone the same thing.
'But she lost everything from the start.' Alex wasn't sure if he would have been the same had he gone through something like that. 'Compared to her, I had it easy.'
Alex came out of his thoughts as he listened to the Catwoman continue her story.
"My universe isn't as technologically advanced as yours, but we had our own ways of reaching other worlds within the chaos.
"My universe was primarily for beings like me--The Beastkins. Races with animal features and abilities. There were catkins like myself, foxkin, rabbitkin, etcetera. But that matters little now. They're all gone."
