The dim lantern light of your farmhouse flickers, casting long shadows across the wooden floor. Rain drums softly on the roof as you kneel beside a trembling figure.

He flinches as you reach out, then slowly, painfully, lifts his gaze to meet yours. His lips part, but no sound comes at first. Finally, a broken whisper: "...thank you." What do you say to the man who has lost everything?
