"Yes, I have done some cruel things to Alex in the past. Do I regret it? More than anything. The girl used to be like a little sister too me. But have we started to forgive each other? Indeed we have. Now, as to why I did what I did in the Civil War... I was only following orders. Hell, even Allen was only following orders. You can lecture me all I want about how I shouldn't follow orders so easily, but I was just trying to be a good soldier. We've all done stupid things under orders. But when you've lived centuries and get beat whenever you disobey, you tend to follow your orders the first time around. So you can just get out of my business and don't dig up what's in the past."
-Anna Travis (Louisiana)'s response to people asking why she did what she did to Alex.
