DFE 1: Survivor child

Larry

 * 1) Child is female, Esther is her name.
 * 2) Her parents, elder sister and two brothers (1 older, 1 younger) are dead.  They were eviscerated and left to die.
 * 3) She is 12.
 * 4) She resists leaving. “My father said this was to be our forever home. No more moving from post to post.”  She looks at you, not defiant, just certain.  “This was our house. I am staying. Maybe Mr. Mac will help me.”
 * 5) She insists on burying her family. She will accept some help, but she washes the bodies, prays over them to some god or other, and inters them.  Deep. In her basement.  After which she replaces the stone paving and re-mortars it.

12 is a little, ah, young for Mac, but surely one or more of his harem will feel a bit maternal. If she wants to stay here, Jaicinteleq won't press the issue. I'd gotten the impression from "child hiding in the attic" that we were talking about a little kid; a 12-year-old in an outpost settlement is probably pretty self-sufficient already. I'll just wish her well.
