He could sympathize with their troubles, to a degree, having seen the landens of Glacia struggling to survive under Hobart's reign. But any landen here had to know full well that sending a landen child to an orphanage run by the Blood could only lead to further misery for the girl. To be an orphan and to be raised by a group of people who would only ever think of you as inferior...
His wings mantled again at the thought.
"Just tell us which orphanage you sent her to, then, and we'll be on our way."
