[ It's in text but something tell Atom that this might be a less than happy subject. If it wasn't a big deal and his family was living peacefully somewhere else, he probably would have volunteered that information. ]
Sorry if that's a difficult subject. You don't have to explain.

They're safe. Hopefully. It's a long story.
[Longer than he'd feel comfortable typing, although maybe that'd at least make it easier since he can hide his emotions this way. But he doubts the method would make much difference in the end. For him it really is a difficult subject, and he's only spoken about it to a few people.]
[ This is where he would give Donnie a respectful quiet nod in acknowledgment and move on. It's difficult at first to decide on a word to use instead, and his reply is slower this time than his typical speedy delivery. ]
I understand.
I have a younger sister at home named Uran. I think she's going to envy all the adventures I get to have here. Especially seeing real magic. I am definitely telling her about your ladder.
Think of something really cool and let me know when you're ready to show me. I promise I'll tell her about that too, and I won't call you the Ladder Wizard.
