Moved by compassion for the child, Malin came in, and upon opening the door, he saw a little child sitting at the bedside, weeping in the company of the hearth fire, lamplight, and a black cat.
Golden long hair, pointed ears, she clearly had elven blood, but her complexion looked very poor.
There was a clear presence of Positive Energy lingering in the room, probably left behind by the Healer who had visited earlier.
With this thought, Malin smiled and walked up to her: "Hello, child, I am Malin Gaiate. You wanted to see me, so now here I am before you."
Malin pulled a chair over and sat down in front of the girl.
She looked at Malin blankly, without the screaming one might have for a star, nor the excitement for meeting a Legendary figure.
This made Malin feel even sadder. Had the child gone blind? Or was she deaf, unable to hear everything Malin had said, thus showing no reaction?
"You said you wanted to see me, right?" Malin spoke again, and this time, the girl smiled.
