So let's say, just as a thought experiment, Gortash wasn't the only kid in House of Hope. Let's say there's about twenty of them. How fucked would that be?
Some Children of the Corn shit. They'd probably trade chores and beatings like currency. There'd be hierarchy based on how long you've been there, actual age is almost irrelevant. Maybe they'd whisper about how their souls aren't really owned by Raphael.
Maybe some would like Hope because she's nice. And maybe some would hate her because she rambles and wails and gets you caught when you don't need to be caught. Maybe the older ones talk about making deals of their own with Raphael. Or about how, when you're old enough, you can get Haarlep to teach you important things.
Maybe. Yanno?
