Kit had hardly known Esme for no more than a single day…
““Kit had hardly known Esme for no more than a single day; and yet, he mourned for her past injustices, greatly. For the first time in his life, he truly felt responsible for another human being. Not as a prince looking out for the general welfare of his people; but as an individual, inheriting a lost soul, whom he felt that only he alone, could nurture and care for.””
