As Carter walked the streets of Dian, she wondered how Skylar was doing. Based off of what Mar had been writing her, Skylar didn't remember much from that night at Redfern, and had endured something terrible while being imprisoned at Deilig. Now that Skylar was home and no longer in the hospital, Carter thought it was a good idea for the three of them to get together again, and have what was once one of their traditional weekend sleepovers.
During the war, Carter had been spending a lot of time with Caleb. Her parents had actually encouraged it, especially after the attack on Earalas. Luckily, nobody from her family was harmed. Even her unsettled siblings had escaped the initial attack on Redfern. However, something had happen during those few months of the war, while she somewhat lived with her boyfriend, something scary and life changing.
Finally, Carter had made it to her friends house. She sucked in a nervous breath before walking to the front door and knocking. Catching up and having a sleepover wasn't the only reason why she wanted to come today.
