And these were Theo and Mausami, his wife; and Sara, who was called Sara the Healer, wife of Hollis.<\/p>\n<p class=\"para-nlf\"><span class=\"list_ornament\"> 3 <\/span>For in the place of Roswell, where they had taken shelter, a great army of virals had laid siege, killing every kind. And only two of their company survived. And these were Hollis the Strong, husband of Sara, and Caleb, son of Theo and Mausami.<\/p>\n<p class=\"para-nlf\"><span class=\"list_ornament\"> 4 <\/span>And a great sadness was upon them all, for the friends that they had lost.<\/p>\n<p class=\"para-nlf\"><span class=\"list_ornament\"> 5 <\/span>And in the place of Kerrville, Amy went to live among the Sisters, who were women of GOD. And likewise did Caleb do the same, to be cared for by Amy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"para-nlf\"><span class=\"list_ornament\"> 6 <\/span>And in that same period, Alicia, who was Alicia of Blades, and Peter, the Man of Days, took up arms with the Expeditionary, who were soldiers of Texas, to search for the Twelve.
