He knew how large the estates in High City were, how extravagant the furnishing and stately their profiles were against the sky. He could never forget the sights of that place even though he wanted to. There was nothing more he wanted than to forget. But he was going back willingly, to spend a night in that place. It wouldn’t be in a dome of cold, steel bars. He wouldn’t be kept as some rich human’s pet. “You are very kind.” For a human, he added internally. “Thank you.”Fintan followed the man, each footfall coming heavy and sluggish. He was thankful for the pace they fell into side by side, and knowing that Hector was there in case he lost the little strength he had. “I’m not so sure.” He trailed off. What human task would a phoenix be good at? Fintan couldn’t believe he was even pondering the idea, yet he was and he was putting in deeper thought than he cared to. “But I guess will just have to try my hand at the different trades until I find something.”HECTOR GRIMOIRE

Kind? Perhaps. Still, it was rare that Hector was offered an opportunity to do so. After all, he was a firm believer that in order to serve the Empire, he must also learn to serve its people.
Many have told him that this would be his downfall.
"That is all that anyone will ask you for," he responds with a small nod. Trying was the first step. So long as that first step was taken, another would soon reveal itself. "I can arrange for you to stay with different people to learn one. They will treat you well if you give them my name."
ooc; for the future, would you like to continue the thread in here and simply time skip to the high city, or would you prefer to begin a new thread according to location?

He doesn’t like all this talk of staying with strangers, other humans. Fintan has no plans to be passed from human to human to learn a trade or some craft to further intergrade in the world of man. It has its appeal. He wouldn’t have to steal if he could work for his meals. Surviving wouldn’t be as hard. But Fintan wasn’t human. He was a phoenix, a monster. It was impossible to live that kind of life. “I would stay with strangers?” He wears a deep frown upon his pale lips. “How do I know your name alone will make them treat me well?” The boy stops walking, holding his ground. "What if I'm not comfortable with that arrangement?"HECTOR GRIMOIRE

Hector pauses for a moment, meditating upon Fintan's word choice. "They would not be strangers, necessarily," he reassures the boy. "They are good people, acquaintances of mine." And even if they weren't, there was an incredibly small handful of people who would even consider double-crossing the Sharan Empire's Imperial General.
Generally speaking, anyways, most people with a semblance of self-preservation would choose not to.
He stops with Fintan with a thoughtful expression on his face. "... then I can arrange for you to stay with me until you have regained your strength. After that, you can decide for yourself what you wish to do. If you decide that you feel safest with me, there will be no one stopping you from continuing your stay."
