Yes. How it worked was... a little bit like the corruption here, but more complete. There’s no trace of the person they were before when they take someone over.
[She sighs.]
It started when a meteor landed, so we had a plan to destroy it. We had a reason to think that would stop the rest of them. We got separated, though, and I thought he died destroying the meteor. The next time I saw him, it was - what you just saw. I don’t know what went wrong.
I don’t know if it was destroyed and it just didn’t work the way we thought it would, or if he wasn’t able to destroy it before he got killed. But what happened after that was, um..

...Nobody came. I tried to run, but there wasn’t anywhere to go, and - you saw how many of them there were.
[ she doesn't know what to say. that situation is already bad enough, but the fact that the ones who did it used to be people that she knew... to be surrounded by that many familiar faces but still be so alone. ]
