Reisa swallowed hard and said, "My father was killed in a raid on the cell's headquarters. My mother was arrested and executed shortly afterwords. I was eight, and the Emperials didn't think I had anything to do with the Rebels, so I was sent to my Uncle's."

*Tara was silent for a moment, not daring to look at Reisa. She herself had been in her teens when she lost her parents, so she couldn't really imagine losing someone so close at such a young age.* "I'm sorry... I shouldn't have asked."

Reisa hastily wiped away a tear, "That's ok," she said in a small voice.

*Tara sighed softly, at a loss for words. She decided it would probably be best to try and change the subject before anymore foul memories resurfaced.* "How is your food?"

Softly Reisa said, "It's ok. I'm a little tired, where can I sleep?"

*Tara was quickly on her feet, eager for the chance to leave the room and get away from another awkward social situation for a moment.* "Stay here and I'll get some bedding for you. You'll want to stay by the heater tonight, trust me. Hoth nights are too cold for even the native species to go outside. Despite being underground and having a bit of a heating system, the temperature still drops in here." *With that, she left the room, heading down one of the tunnels to another storage room.*

Reisa sighed. When was she going to be able to talk about her parents without crying? She should be over it by now, it had been what, 11 years? Her mind drifted, memories flooding her brain.

*Tara was silent as she dragged heavy blankets and a sleeping mat from one of her storage bins. She hated being around people. Not because she found them unpleasant or distasteful in any way, but simply because she always wound up saying the wrong thing and never knew quite how to react to people. She never had to worry about insulting a tauntaun because they always forgave her the second she gave them a handful of their favorite fungus. Besides that, who was she going to offend? Ice scrabblers and Hoth hogs? Unlikely. She shook her head, knowing that she shouldn't worry so much about these things. Reisa would be gone as soon as her ship was up and running, and then she would be all alone again without anyone to worry about... But then again, was that really such a good thing? Not wanting to think about the matter any further, she quickly heaved the load of bedding down the icy hall, back to where Reisa sat waiting for her.* "Here we are..."

Reisa jumped. She had been thinking so hard she hadn't heard Tara walk up. "Thank you, for everything I mean. You've been so helpful to a complete stranger," She arranged the bedding close, but not too close to the heater, and turned off R6.

*Tara offered a warm smile.* "Don't mention it... It's not often that I have the chance to meet anyone new around here." *She grabbed her coat.* "Get some sleep. You'll need it for the journey tomorrow."

"Ok, goodnight." She layed down on the makeshift bed, and closed her eyes. Reisa was so tired she fell asleep almost immediately.

*Tara quietly left the room, heading down the tunnel to her own private chamber. It wasn't much... Her sleeping mat was raised off of the ground by a plasteel frame since sleeping on the floor at night without a powerful heater would be quite uncomfortable. She switched on the small heater near the odd little bed and climbed under the pile of blankets there. She lay there awake for quite some time, thinking about everything that Reisa told her. However, she eventually succumbed to her weariness, falling fast asleep.*

Reisa opened her eyes and didn't recognize the white ceiling she was staring at. She rubbed the sleep out of her eyes and remebered where she was. The sun kust not be up yet, she thought. She put her thermal suit and hood back on. I wonder if Tara is up yet.

*Tara was up before the sun as always, starting her daily round of chores. After grabbing a bite of ice scrabbler meat and suiting up for the day, she turned off her small heater and left her room. She visited the tauntauns' cavern to check up on them and saddle up all three of them. She refilled their trough with their favorite fungi which she had harvested from beneath the snow. They would need the energy for the long run ahead. When she was sure that they were ready, she walked down the tunnel to the den to see if Reisa was awake.*

Reisa was doing stretches to get her blood flowing when she saw Tara walking down the hall. "Good morning! Did you have a nice sleep?"

*Tara nodded.* "I slept fine. How about you? It wasn't too cold for you I hope?" *She crossed the room, picking up her goggles and face scarf from the shelf and putting them on.*

"It was fine. I usually don't notice the temperature when I'm sleeping, usually to busy dreaming." She watched Tara don her gear and asked, "Are we leaving right away?"

"I have to clear snow from the entry and the solar panels outside, but after that, we can leave. You should eat some breakfast while I'm working." *Tara pointed down one of the tunnels.* "Down that tunnel, first room on your right, there's a gray container with more packets of meat in it. I wouldn't suggest trying anything from the white container, unless you just like tauntaun food."
