I had a secret since I was a baby. One that could heal or kill.
That was why I'd left two families behind me on that road.

"Mom, do you get many new memories of your life before?"
"Oh, sometimes. Dreams, sure, but those aren't accurate. And then when I'm doing something, I can get snatches of memories back."
"Did you ever get dreams or memories of your real mom?"
"Only that she always seemed to be smiling at me. From what I understand, she wasn't around very long. So if all I ever remember of her was a smiling face, then that will be good."
"You never met your real dad?"...
