Chimaras sighed, "My last place of residance was attacked by an old enemy of the school." Chimaras looked at her hands, "I would have fought to the death if there were more people willing to sacrifice themselves so that the Headmistress could get further away from the shadow... But I didn't because there were only two others that wanted to die for the Headmistress. And they told me to flee, so I did. The last I saw of them was the shadow swarming around them and thier skillful efforts to hold off the shadow." In parts of this story, Chimaras lied to cover up her fear of death for she was trained to never reveal that fear.
