But whatever she would have taken from all that extra tragedy, she didn't really live it. And she's here, but she didn't beat the wardens, she didn't even escape them. She didn't have any more choice coming here than she did going there. Will the Atroma be the ones they overpower? Did she already lose if she doesn't believe it will happen?]
