Myself and those I know of would, he assured her, thinking of Amalia, Deimos. Sam, Oliver, Lily, and others as well, who always showed up when help was needed, even for strangers. And there were likely many more in Torchline as well who hadn't yet met! ... or so he could hope.
I don't know, he admitted with a mental sigh. I suppose... because she had it, and she took all that she owned with her when she left? With no thought to those she left behind, he felt, but did not say. Maybe she's given it to someone else, since then. I haven't seen her since her departure.
