It was actually a much bigger deal at the time than Nill wants to let on, but that's because it's not the sort of thing you can just bring up. How do you tell someone you had to publicly turn down a marriage proposal? It was a nightmare at the time, but loss tends to color memories a little differently than how they played out. And she's not sure she can manage to discuss her losses right now.

"The first world was mine. It was..."

Even now, she hasn't found words to really explain what her world was like. She hadn't disliked it, but it was responsible for a whole slew of awful on it's own.

"The second world I visited was similar to it. None of them have been similar since then. NeoGenesis was a city with three levels and very cruel people. Siren's Port was an island that was impossible to leave that mutated Newcomers. Exsilium was a version of earth much further in the future than the other worlds."

And then, here, which she certainly doesn't need to explain to him. After taking another moment to consider, a slight frown creasing her brow as she thinks over her information, she continues, "I think I was fifteen the last time I was in my own world. I should be older than twenty now. Is that three sweeps?"
