Claessen and Kasarus sat together for a meal for the first time. Cleassen asked, "Dont have any family?"

Kasarus bit into a chicken leg and then replied with a full mouth, "Mom and dad died of starvation. Did not have any brothers or sisters. Uncles and aunties did not care."

Kasarus nodded. But before he could complete his nod, he was standing in front of the Antirian king.
