Later that afternoon, Oslo visited Elena and Ethan to discuss the newly established 'Paradise Homes' for the children.
They had repurposed Aunt Joana's old unit, setting it up with just beds to house kids who had either lost their guardians or had been abandoned near the Paradise Shop.
Of course, everything was done quietly to ensure that families who could still care for their children wouldn't try to send them to Paradise Homes just for convenience.
Since most residents and customers rarely went upstairs and stayed near the Paradise Shop, it spared them the trouble of discovering its existence.
"So far, there are about thirty kids under eighteen lingering around the shop. They're extremely malnourished, and there isn't enough food to keep them going," Oslo reported.
"How did they survive this long?" Elena asked, amazed by their toughness and will to live.
