"Okay. You want to know? Of course you want to know, you're Wesley."
She can't help but smile slightly at this, as she reaches over to retrieve a notebook from the bedside table's drawer. She flips through a few pages until she comes to one that is covered in drawings of this symbol, which she then hands over to Wesley.
"That's the symbol that's burned into my chest. I don't know what it is, or what it means. I don't even know where to start looking. All I know is that one minute I was having a conversation with this woman, she was a scholar, a physicist, and she knew more than I do, more than anyone in our time does. She offered to let me see her library, and she could get me out of the bar, so... I went."
She pauses just long enough to take a breath, because if she stops now she's never going to finish explaining.
"And I don't remember what happened, but I think I went with her. Something happened in her world, or wherever she took me, but I don't know if she hurt me or if something just... happened. All I know is that suddenly I was in the bar again and it hurt and I didn't know why or what had done it, and I was frazzled and confused and I ran back here and didn't tell anybody anything, and then you were here right after, so..." she trails off.

"I didn't want you to worry."
