"So that's what happened to them?" Fan Ha said as she sighed lightly unable to hide the sadness in her eyes from hearing the fate that befell the obsidian serpent couple.
"You knew them?" asked Yang Qing.
Fan Ha nodded slightly.
"They admired my elder sister, especially Bai Su," Fan Ha said, referencing the female obsidian couple.
"Other than my elder sister, I have known them longest," Fan Ha added, her gaze flashing with complicated emotions.
"When I left they didn't have a child though I knew they always wanted one, more Bai Zhen than Bai Su, but they were not successful at it ... A small part of their failures had to do with Bai Su who always felt inferior and was thus fraught with worry that her failings would extend to her child.
A thought that terrified her. With how much of a hold it had on her, I was sure they would go all their lives without one, but then... life makes fools of us all at times," she said as she smiled pitifully.
