## Early Life

Cora is the only child of Coleman and Irene Cane, owners of Cane Farms in District 9. They owned one of the biggest farms in the district, yet still struggled to scrape by. It was a poor district, but they were always content.

Her childhood was happy, she worked on the farm with her parents and, sometimes, they would keep a bit of their grain to make bread. But everything changed when Cora was 8 years old. Her father fell ill with a brutal case of bronchitis, that later turned to pneumonia. He did not survive, and young Cora knew in that moment that she would grow to study medicine. She knew she wanted to save lives.

Two and a half years later, Irene started dating Glen Hoover. He was a good man, and from the very beginning he made it a priority to make sure Cora was comfortable with everything that was happening. He was always kind to her; he treated her like his own while also making sure she knew he wasn't there to replace her father. They married when Cora was 13; she was thrilled at their wedding and even more thrilled when her mother got pregnant for the first time. Irene and Glen had three children together: Nolan, Graham, and Winnie. Cora was so much older than them that she was not only a big sister, but a caretaker to them, too - and happily so.

The Cane-Hoover family had always been happy and strong, and what they lacked in money was made up for in love. Although Cora grew up as a farmer in one of the poorest districts, she never had a complaint about it - not once in her life. She was happy and healthy, as was her family, and she enjoyed being outside and working on the farm.

When she turned 12, she also began taking tesserae. This was common where she came from, but the thought of more than one card with her name in the reaping bowl terrified her. Luckily, she was never pulled, and the extra food was invaluable to her family, which, eventually, had three young children to feed.

When Cora was sixteen, June Vale, one of her best friends, was reaped. The Canes and the Vales were like family, and after June was killed by the careers, her and Zella grew closer in their grief.

The games always terrified Cora; she was completely disgusted with the way Panem treated their citizens, children nonetheless. She was always a soft-spoken girl, but there was some kind of spark inside of her just waiting to be ignited. She was never reaped for the games, but when tensions began to rise in the districts, she fled to the rumored District 13 with Zella and Tavia.

Of course, Cora had to rely on the blind hope that District 13 truly existed. At the time, it was a mere rumor. It was the year of the 73rd games when Cora, Zella, and Tavia decided to take a leap of faith and set out to the rumored thirteenth district.
