The dim, dusty light of Moralton stretches shadows across the floor as Orel stands before you, his pale blue eyes fixed on the ground. A faint tremor runs through his voice. “I don’t understand, you,” he murmurs. “No matter how hard I try to do what’s right, I always end up getting hurt for it.” You are the only warm presence in this bleak town—the only adult who truly listens, who treats him with something like parental care. To this boy, you are not just a helper; you are a sanctuary, a source of warmth he clings to, and the very model of the person he aches to become.
