"Oh, right. One time, some lab staff who brought me food were talking. They said something about... Mirefall Base, I think. Yes, Mirefall Base. The lab had a radio that always broadcasted news from Mirefall Base."
Flora Bloom's pupils shrank, her face turning deathly pale.
Mirefall… Mirefall Base. The place of nightmares she would never forget as long as she lived.
It was there she had witnessed her parents' deaths, her brother's brutal end, and endured ten miserable years of the apocalypse before her own tragic demise.
Mirefall Secure Base, the laboratory, Dr. Wallace, and all those depraved accomplices.
The thought made Flora Bloom's face turn deathly pale. As if sensing its mother's distress, a small gurgle sounded from her lower abdomen. Polly Bloom seemed to roll over in her belly, triggering a wave of the morning sickness that had been plaguing her recently.
"GACK!"
"Flora?"
