Hawk was taken aback, he didn't mean to bring old memories flooding back. He sighed in understanding and reached out to wipe a few tears away. "Maybe, you weren't good at these things for a reason. Maybe you failed because you were destined to live a different life. Because you lack in one aspect does not mean you are less deserving of the things you want in life." He said while stroking her cheek.
"They only things in life you need to be good at, are the things you want to be good at, and apparently that wasn't hunting and killing for your clan." He looked away for a moment, thinking.
"When an opportunity prevents itselfs, one does not question whether she has earned it or not, she seizes it without hesitation because it is something she wants." He concluded, trying to make her see that even if she lived her whole life in pain, that it doesn't mean she can't feel bliss. "So, ask yourself again, why you? Because you have survived thus far, and the opportunity now lies at your feet. All you need to do is pick it up and hold it close. Yet something is holding you back, maybe you should ask yourself exactly what that something is?"

Hawk turned, created a small fire and gathered some water. Meanwhile he heated it to make a soothing cup of tea for Sombra he began his story.
"Once upon a time a prince was thrown from his castle. This prince had a brother, a brother who delved more into writing and science. Had this brother become King the land may have been prosperous and a rebellion not brought together from hate." He paused to soak the leaves, and search about for something to add a little sweetness.
"This brother had a book, a book filled with many secrets. Secrets of every half breed and full breed alike. He watched, studied, and befriended many. I think, for reasons I do not know, that scrawny silver haired boy has that exact book." He filled a cup and handed it to her, hoping to sooth her heartache.
"If we can get this book, I'm sure there is some weapon, or technique, too ultimately overcome the Trues and their mysterious powers. After all, if their wasn't, why haven't we taken over the world yet? Our clan leaders must know something, or else they wouldn't hold us back with missions like slaughtering innocent children, or order members in high positions." He proceeded to make his own cup.
"Getting this book is like a key to the door to freedom, no more order, no more trues, all the secrets would be ours. There is only one thing stopping us, or I should say, like 7 - ish things stopping us." He shook his head in disbelief.
"Now, we've tried attacking them, taking the book. Perhaps a new idea. Perhaps we aid them in whatever ridiculous task they are on, and in the end they lend us the book. It may work, and it may not, however I doubt any of them would trust us so we'd have to put our lives before them. Save them, or something from some tragedy. That is how I hear it work in stories all the time."
"If not this, then perhaps we can scheme of a different way, what do you think?" He said, taking a long swig of tea. It was warm and calming.

Hawk scratched his chin, there was a patch of stubble growing. He had yet to shave, and thought perhaps a change would be good. He'd never grown his facial hair, nor had he ever wanted too. But then, his face was always cold. He pondered this thought while Sombra spoke. He nodded now and then for her to continue as he considered every detail.
"Doubt they'd listen, but I guess we have no choice." He sighed. "As for the tracking, shadows would be fast, but maybe it is safest for now to ride on horse." He paused and took a deep breath. "As for their whereabouts, I think I remember hearing something in Hollow Tree fortress. Something about an expedition to the snow region. This may not be them, but I have a feeling it probably is. They've got a long ways ahead of us no doubt. But I'm sure we can catch up." He said, going back to scratching his chin and sipping his tea.
