"I am not kind." Was all he said in reply. He elected not to answer her question. It was irrelevant. "You say you feel others' emotions. Perhaps this is why I am 'different'. I have been stripped of such weakness." He decided not to tell her he didn't care. That might put her trust in him on a ledge, and his charge required she be cooperative. 

A part of him wondered if that was true though. Perhaps a trace part of him thought of her well-being as advantageous. He was learning a lot from her after all... but it was more than that somehow.. He put these thoughts in the back of his mind for further analysis at a later time. 

He wiped her face off once more and stood. "Come, I will escort you back and see what it is these 'others' have to say of you." He said. 

The man who had hired him, one of high status and influence, had drawn up a writ of passage in relation to the girl. The man's place in whatever he did, which was a well kept secret, gave him access to such power, and had deemed it a requirement. The Primm woman would certainly not allow a monster such as Cain to walk the grounds freely. 

His sword was a little much though, so he removed t from his back and reformed it into a bracer for his right forearm that contained a hidden blade.
