The cause of Bert's pain didn't notice a single thing and, really, better that she didn't. Kaine's home was eating these same meals with her grandmother as a child, and with Nariko as a teenager. Home wasn't a place or arrangement of buildings, it was the people she was with, and a certain kind of nostalgia that only food could activate. But saying all of that would have only made it worse.
Both girls smiled at Bert's revelation, as well as his desire to share it with Roland. Nariko left them to it for some extra moments, but she couldn't avoid the question any longer.
"So, I imagine all of that went about the only way it could," Farson moving in right after the Claude debacle. Whether it was a planned affair, or they saw an opportunity hardly mattered to Nariko. "But why did you come back a mess? And how for that matter?"
Kaine, who had dreaded this topic all day, was at least moderately prepared to handle it now. She wiped her mouth with the back of her arm (or would have, if Nariko hadn't stopped her and offered a napkin) and then explained as quickly as possible. "Because I saw the black scrawl on Bert and Alain, it disappeared after I did that," Here she made a twirling motion with her finger. This was somehow meant to explain the howling mode of fighting that she had put to use.
"But without your song I wasn't nearly as strong. You know it took me five minutes to get through three hundred? I counted, and it was bullshit. My body gave out and I died again. Before, I told Alain to take Bert and Jamie and run if it came to that but he brought us here with Maggie's book. At least, that's what I'm assuming what happened. I've only ever felt that weird electricity once before and it was back when you ..." Kaine trailed off, and shook her head. "For a second I thought I actually died for good, but then we woke up in Mystic and everyone was angry at each other, Elder Johnson tried to eat Bert, and Trish tried to have sex with Alain. Because she's a disgusting and horrible bitch."

And that's what happened according to Kaine.
