“…may I hug you?”

That was unexpected. This one was Alessio, wasn’t it?

Fire was starting to flicker about his fingers and hair. An emotion called anger seemed to be with it. But not directed to Crorie. Nu. 2 could guess what Alessio was thinking about.

In the end, Crorie just nodded and let Alessio hug her. Although she did not return it.

They got rid of the spider. Arsene couldn’t help but sigh with relief. Now, he just needed to find everyone. Quickly searching, Arsene spotted child Alessio hugging… Crorie? She was a child too! How did this happen?!

Calm down, calm down. It’s just responsibility, Arsene could do this. He walked over to Alessio, stared for a moment, and then noticed the other guy. He looked better than most, but was still a little short, rather slim too. And his hand looked like it was injured in some way. Odd.

“And who might you be?”

Sage was about to ask about the spider, when he noticed someone in the corner. He looked thirteen or twelve, with silver hair. Like Father. Sage just stood there, staring. His skin looked a little pale, but natural at the same time. He was hiding his face. Strange.

Without even noticing it, Sage walked a little closer, almost to where he was able to touch the boy’s hair. Had he given it more thought, Sage would have probably kept his mouth shut.

“Are you a non-human? Like my family?”
