"About a month." Kadi looks proud, but the baby does not look one month old. She is a bit too dainty for that. "But she was early."

And she was born free. That's the most important thing. She was born free, and will grow up free. Kadi considers this young man, carrying a kitten in his pocket and acting like it's comparable to a baby, and...anyone who can be that kind and sweet with an animal seems like someone she could trust. This place may actually be the village that helps to raise her child.
