"But didn't they say you... you died, I don't understand, how can this be?"
"A forged death can fool just about anyone, people saw me jump into the well but only after my wish was made. I wished to go to a place where no one knew me, and for the people there, to think I died. It, in turn, brought me here, and left a false body at the well. But I'm glad you're here my boy. Your friends are searching but for who, in truth?"
"We are searching for friends who came here with us. One named James, another named Edmond. Edmond is looking for someone who might have come here before we did. But came because of us." Charlie began to feel guilty at the mess they've caused.
The grandfather gave Charlie a pouch of coins. "This money can help all five of you live in this world for at least a week if you spend it wisely. Come back if you need anything or if you have a picture of what these kids look like I can ask my customers."
