"I... I'd accept. I really would."
He lowered his head slightly.
"Can I be real with you two?"
Clementine and I exchanged a glance, then nodded.
"Sure."
"Alright."
He exhaled anxiously.
"You see... I own an orphanage. The city I grew up in never had one, so I put together some money and built one. There are hundreds of kids living there, and the thought of leaving them is a little tough, you know?"

"Are you an orphan as well?"
Rain nodded.
"I am, yeah."
"Then, these other orphans. Is it possible for us to relocate them? I could pay to have them transported to the Elodrenia continent, and then escorted to safety."
He shook his head.
