## History

Hannah was abducted in 2015. She was two days away from an international launch and book tour for her debut novel *In Search of a Hero.* It was optioned for a movie and was set to be huge.

### Hannah's Hero

Hannah's life wasn't suppose to turn out this way. She was about to be published, she had a movie deal, she was going to be rich and famous, all her dreams were about to come true. Now she is just another survivor on an ice planet with no way home. Worst she has started resonating with J'shel. Being someones mate, and a mother is the last thing she is interested in - she wants to find a way home.

Tension was high around camp, Hannah's not the only one resisting resonance, and people were becoming frustrated with Hannah. They aren't interested in her sour mood, her resistance, or her need to control all the supplies. When Hannah heard that Brooke and Taushen are planning on taking a trip to the fruit cave, an escape from all this sounds exactly like what she needs. Brooke says she can come, but only if she finds a buddy. All the men of Icehome turned her down, even J'shel as he felts he can't abandon N'dek.

The day of the trip comes and Hannah's getting desperate. She considers asking a human to go with her, but her timing couldn't be worst. R'jaal had just come up with the idea of having games to relieve some of the tension and everyone was excited. J'shel was feeling guilty about rejecting Hannah, but after getting into an argument with N'dek he decides to go with her. He realizes that his guilt isn't helping N'dek, and his friend must decide he wants to change things for the better.

Hannah and J'shel began to bond on the trip. Along the way the find the corpse of a sa-kohtsk. J'shel suspected it's old Grandfather, a sky-claw larger then all others. They arrived at the fruit cave. Hannah and J'shel continued to bond. They shared chakk leaf when Hannah got burnt fixing the light in the fruit cave, resulting in her getting very high.

The next day a cry rang out through the cave. J'shel's suspicions it's old Grandfather turn out to be true. As Sky-claws are territorially, he knew they'll be no easy way to pass him. They decided they'll have to wait to see if he would leave. However they quickly realized he knew they are in the territory and wasn't likely to leave.

At a loss they wait. During this time J'shel and Hannah gave into resonance. One evening J'shel told Hannah the story of how an ancestor injured Grandfather. A few days later Taushen came up with the idea to dose Old Grandfather with chakk leaves, while the other three get past. J'shel volunteered to take the leaves up, knowing the sky-claw would only come after live prey. While confronting the sky-claw he realized that old Grandfather is actually a female. He succeeded by holding up the bag of leaves himself, wounding himself in the process.

The four reunite and make their way back to Icehome. The games have started and N'dek is now wearing a prosthetic. They warned the others about Old Grandfather. Hannah agreed to help Veronica with keeping track of healing herbs.
