I stand respectfully as Kasumi delivers the boy to her order, happy that the boy will get the help he needs.  Though I have questions about Kasumi's past, her training, her master, I leave them be; after all, it's not my place to pry. I leave with a warm sense of satisfaction, that some genuine good has come of this mission's disastrous end.  And then, I see Kasumi holding onto me, in a state unlike any I'd ever seen her in.  "Kasumi, what-" I cut my question off.  What she needs now isn't me interrogating her.  "Alright," I say, placing my arm reassuringly at her back as I lead her away from the monastery.<br/><br/>((Phasing out of the realms of the main thread, and into Sam's thread (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=54090.0).))
