The Bell family were well-to-do but lived modestly. Their house stood out from the rest with its rich red color, on the facade hung a bright yellow sign with the name of the store, and the windows were decorated with a beautiful front garden.
Murine's parents, Liane and Ormond, loved to travel. Their fortune allowed them to undertake the most desperate adventures. However, after their daughter was born, they decided to keep her at home, as she was only eleven years old. Previously, they preferred dangerous expeditions: conquer snowy mountains, cross deserts, explore ancient caves. However, with the appearance of a little girl, they had to give up such risky adventures. But as soon as Murine turned eleven, her parents began to leave her in the care of her older sister and themselves more and more often went on distant and dangerous journeys.
