Machado was thinking, while watching for the way they were going to do something as simple as taking a walk. Many people have died just walking in this district.<br/>"I wonder how Lina attracted the attention of the old guy. He was a great teacher, and a very talented one. I didn't need to know it was him who sent her - only he knows that name, and it's unlike him he would confide in someone who cannot be trusted. Thus, I have to assume there is more to the girl than catches the eye.<br/>I hope there is. She is going to need it to survive this trip and carry on the "legacy" she inherited.<br/>And I must admit I like Freja. We both have something that separates us from ordinary people. I don't know what it is about her, but she seems... distant. I believe that whenever she walks through a crowded room, she still feels lonely.<br/>I guess she sensed the same with me, and that's how we became friends, actually. It's not shared secrets - it's knowing that the other has secrets, and mutually respecting their privacy. Now that I mention secrets, I might need to reveal mines, if we are to travel together, but I'll deal with it if and when it becomes necessary.<br/>For now, it's the city wall."<br/><br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 6pt;">(Nothing important, really, just felt like detailing how my character feels about all this).</span>
