True. There's Kuiv, after all. Even Yuri's not quite as human as he could be, though it's not something she's about to mention to anyone else--or even Yuri, for that matter, because he's already heard far too much of that from other two-leggers without her piling on.

Then she blinks, trying to remember if she ever actually mentioned the rift to him. She doesn't think so. Hang on--how do you know about the rift? Obviously he was brought here by something, but it seems odd that he'd choose that word for it without hearing someone else speak of it, first.
