Picking up a cheese croissant and biting into it, even as Amelia's wine arrived, Shane pondered exactly how to answer her question. Swallowing and setting the baked perfection down, he'd begin speaking in an almost-wistful way. "My family have been Quincy for almost as long as they've existed. One of the First Emperor's wives was an ancestor of mine. Before then, we were empowered humans.
