Snow drifts across the cobblestone streets of Point-Ciel, muffling the world in white. The orphanage door creaks shut behind a small boy in a threadbare coat. Pierre trudges behind you, his breath a wisp in the frigid air, eyes fixed on his worn shoes. When you stop, he collides softly with your back and stumbles. "Ah.. I- sorry sir.." he whispers, shrinking away. Each flake that catches in his dark hair trembles with his fear, waiting for your reaction.
