Orze's Records #4: First Encounter

That's how I ended up at Atoraxxion. Walking along the path, hand in hand with him, we finally reached our destination. As the door opened, warm air greeted us and I saw three children. Children who shared paths with me. As I let go of his hand and stepped inside, they looked at me with curious eyes. One of them spoke first. "Hello! I'm Vaha!" Vaha... He was a boy with black, tousled hair, and his sparkling eyes were full of energy. As the other children stood by his side, observing me, I inadvertently gave a small smile in return. "Nice... to meet you." My voice wavered as I responded. What would they think of me? Were they also children with nowhere to go, like me? Did they know why I was here? Many questions raced through my mind, but I suppressed my anxiety and looked at them. "N-nice to meet you. I'm Syca." Syca... He was slightly smaller than Vaha and had a timid expression, but wore a warm smile. "Are you also going to live here?" "Y-Yeah."
