Helena, Victor... Kael and Ember.
How can Ivy forget any of them?
They were the light of her life. The hope that helped her to survive the grueling apocalypse.
Ivy's heart trembled with gratitude and guilt at the thought of her eldest brother, Kael.
In her past life, after the Ravencroft family threw her away, Silas's subordinate took her in. They tended to her and provided her with food even though she was a burden.
Later, they all died too, and she was the only survivor. Using her sharp sense, Ivy learned to attack on the basis of her hearing skills. Thanks to Silas's subordinate, she had at least learned to fight and survive.
They made sure to prepare her for the future, where they might not be present at all.
Soon she met her best friend and her group. They were a mercenary group, and they carried her along because of her best friend. It could be said that after her parents and Silas's friends, if she was grateful to anyone, then... it was her own best friends.
