Letter from the leader:

Kasen asked me to include this --

Dear Orphans,

I made an announcement, earlier this week.The announcement was about Mira, she's always been a good friend to me. This is why it saddens me to have to be the bearer of bad news.

Recently, while in my office I found some very disturbing letters from the Ministry of defense about her being involved with certain activities which resulted in her being a fugitive. Being that she has been staying in our halls, we were, knowingly or unknowingly, harboring a fugitive.For the protection of the Orphans, I asked her to leave. I feel as though I made the right decision and I hope I have your support.

 Finally to Mira: You’ll be missed without a doubt. I do hope our paths cross again soon.Take care of yourself.

 -Kasen Sorel.
