Heron Lake Plateau Give the girl a gold star

Towhee's sudden interest in her leg garnered curiosity from Niamh, who also felt hope rise in her throat, only to find herself disappointed when the leg didn't move again, and Towhee seemed to become resigned. Something had happened, though, but it didn't seem like a big deal to Towhee. Niamh had no idea what phantom pains were, and assumed maybe Towhe had felt a twinge- but her dismissive attitude now seemed to indicate otherwise. 

She asked about their shared relative, and Niamh was happy to comply and tell Towhee about what she knew. "Well, as far as I knew, the guy's name was Osprey. I think he's more closely related to you than me, though, since he and his sister sort of left the DeMonte family." Her details were nowhere near perfect, of course, but Niamh had never excelled at storytelling. "I think he and his like...I dunno if she was a friend of the family or mother-in-law or something, I can't really remember...But they were kidnapped by some psychopaths and held hostage?" She asked, trying to sort through the details, just as her roleplayer was trying to do as well. "To keep them from running off, the whackjobs beat them down and chewed their toes off. I think their pack caught up with them, though, so they were able to escape." She said. "They got away, and got back home, and he like, lived to be something like nine or ten and had a tonne of kids." She said. "I think you're probably like a great-great-great-great-neice or grandchild, depending on whether you're a descendant of him or his sister, Mo." She explained. "I think...I think I'm sort of on some other trail of the family. Like Osprey's grandfather is some ancestor of mine, too. Had some kind of badass name...I think it was Bronco? Anyway, he was sort of the head honcho of the whole family, back in this valley they all lived in, somewhere North of here and East a bit, I think." She explained. Of course, she couldn't remember the name of it, or where exactly it was, but her parents sure went on about it enough.
