You are correct. It will be ran by mostly Arthur, but I have offered my guidance in any way I can give. I think we would like to keep Duplicity out of it.

I can understand that. In that case, I would like to offer my own assistance with anything that I can. Either the kitchen or collecting donations— It matters not to me.

Both are efforts pleasing to the Lord.

I am glad you see it likewise. I am to meet Arthur to look at the location he had selected. So perhaps for now if you could start on donations, food, clothes, items for hygiene, we could start on something for those submissive that arrive with nothing.

[there's a difficult, embarrassed and almost wry laugh from her.] —Clothes would be helpful, yes.

[she's thinking of those paper gowns...]

That is what I am hope. If we can start there.

It has been quite a while since I've done it, but... there may be others who also know how to sew and mend. That might be of use, as well.

It certainly would. Anything would help. Some come here with nothing and no one.

You speak the truth. I remember what it was like to feel alone in the world. Just the kindness of a few people goes a long way.

That is what I am hoping we will be for those who need it.

Yes. Thank you very much for your time, Lucrezia.

I look forward to seeing you soon. At St. Vincent's.

St. Vincent's? Is that the name?

It is, yes. And you are welcome any time.

St. Vincent de Paul—the patron saint of charity. It is quite fitting.

You are precisely right. It felt appropriate considering how much is needed in the Down and all we wish to do.

I am confident God and his saints will be guiding us.

[one, after all, is jeanne herself.]

And I. Should you need anything, let me know.

I will do that. Please take care.

And you as well. Thank you, Jeanne, for your help.
