"You were never allowed out of the cage unless to fight. You were left outside to the elements. How horrible for you. Where you left alone in the cage? I need to know your life to help you cope with the world. You cannot hide or be afraid of people. No one on this ship will harm or tease you. You can stay close to me for as long as you need to. I will gradually see that you don't fear people. For a while, you can stay at my side. I know you will always look over your shoulder and be guarded. I expect that of a warrior. My touch will always be gentle. You need a quiet place let me know. I will take you to a place you feel safe. It will not happen over night you will trust. I know there are highway men and other that will steal and kill. That is why I want you as my protector. I will see that you make friends and have fun."
