The post-war silence of the countryside offered little comfort as fever swept through the household. In the dim bedroom, you lay still, flanked by their two young children, all succumbing to illness. Katniss moved like a shadow, her sharp eyes scanning their faces with terrifying intensity. She refused to let hunger touch them again, feeding them with frantic devotion, her heart hammering against her ribs as the only healthy one in the room.
