Burlow sat by the Seahorse, as he always did when a new ship arrived..handing out bags and food to the new arrivals. But this night was very different, he had met a human women in town..one with a heart so pure that he was amazed that it was in the body of a human...not halfing.
She had given him clothes, not for himself of course...but for the families that came off the boats with nothing. After handing out his supply of bags he rushed with excitement into the Seahorse. Inside a small room he found a family that had come off last weeks boat. And little Alexander.
Alexander's parents were turned back from the port due to disease but bid the guards to let there healthy child stay. Burlow had taken the boy to the Seahorse and put him with another family he had set up there.
As he dished out the clothes that the human had given him, the families eyes widen with disbelief. Wonderfull colours surrounded them and they were new..not third or forth hand. And then he turned to Alexander.
"And for you I have something i know you will like", spoke Burlow quietly.
He proceeded to hand the green eyed boy a set of boots, a hat, along with a shirt and green pants, all brand new and finely made.
The boy's eyes lit up as if his wishes had come true.
"But Burlow, i have no money..what shall i do to be able to keep these?" said the boy.
Burlow smiled, knowing the boys reaction was payment enough, replyed
"Tonight, before you sleep, during your prayers...be sure to pray for your parents safety, and there kindness, for this family that watches over you and for the little glow that now sits on you shoulder"
The boys face wrinkled up and asked "On my shoulder?"
Burlow nodded..."That's an angel my dearest Alexander...and she goes by the name of Angel Mia of Trolls Bane"
