Tomoe smelled something really good coming from the guy who had taken him away from his master. He grabbed it and sat it on the ground so he could eat it, it was how his master always told him to eat. He thought it was normal to eat food this way so he had never really questioned it.

"My master took care of me for a long time. He hurt me a lot but if I wasn't with him, I would be all alone. He even told me that I would be dead without him." He didn't know exactly what that meant but he was afraid to ask any questions. The boy didn't understand much of what the guy was saying.
