# 0_0 That Badge...
It’s from Sunyshore’s Gym?
You’ve been to that port town, then...
Would... Would you lend an ear to this
old man’s tale?
# 0_1 No...
I shouldn’t burden you with this.
My grandson grew up in that city by
the sea.
Worn down by trying to live up to his
parents’ expectations, he found refuge\fin tinkering with machines.
I wonder even now if I should have
taken him in and raised him myself.
Though I’m not certain if that would
have been a good choice or not...
I don’t think anyone could say.
I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said any
of this to you...
# 0_2 Ah...
Pay me no heed, then.
I only hoped to unburden myself of
some guilt...
