Zeynep's (mis)Adventures in Ruritania

arise, oh people, let us hear your voices... your voices of freedom.

brothers and sisters

We received a letter from my mom's brother and family in Zahrville. As a result of the increase in violence and bombings from the Brn, they've decided to flee.

They stated in the letter that they're coming no matter if they can stay with us or not. My Uncle Uzi said that if we can't house them, they'll go to the camp or find another place to live near us. My mom went to talk with my Uncle Zack and we've all decided that we'll split their family between our two houses. Of course they'll have to register with the UN, just like we did, but hopefully if we share all the food all three of our families receives, then we'll be able to make it last longer.

They also wrote that since Lorenzo's return, they'll all been scared for their own lives. Of course they're happy that he returned home (and alive at that), but should the Brn ever find out where Lorenzo lives, it would be a disasterous situation (even though the Brn aren't prominent in Zahrville, you never can be 100% sure).

So, preparations for our new family additions have been made. My uncle and aunt will stay in our house, and my three cousins will stay next door.
