"No worry if it's a bother. I've made due so far." The silence after the rat had left made Kadim colder. he wrapped in his cloak tighter and used the blanket he'd given him.  Looking around, he made note of what needed to be done as far as repairs to make the place a little more livable. it wasn't too bad, but it did need some work.  he could handle it now, but later...  he didn't exactly know where he would be later.  The possibility that he'd never be able to go back home hit him hard.  While he was gone he got more sleep, but soon just listened out for anyone approaching.
