It was hard to believe it, if he were honest, because his memory is fuzzy and unclear. Perhaps he had woken up from a nightmare, one with too many eyes, as fatigue, hunger, and thirst had been at the brink of collapse. The city had been too bright, too shining, for the bitterness in his soul after months of searching fruitlessly.

So he had been in a daze as he had walked around the city, the shape, sound, and size of it so unfamiliar that it intimidated him, but it was still better than the lingering taste of dirt and the scent of the earth that permeated his sense.
That is, until he sees the child collapse. It makes something inside of him snap momentarily, making his mind clear, even as he makes a beeline towards him in concern.]

[Immediately, he gets on his knees to examine him, perhaps check for a pulse to be sure.]
