“Morris?” Peabody paused at the door. “Can I ask why you decided to be an ME?” He sent her a surprised look, then an easy smile. “It’s simple, really. There are those who tend to the living and those who tend to the dead. Those, like me, work to find answers to give those like you. Those who stand for the ones who had their lives taken.” He laid a hand on Lessa’s head again. “The dead also need tending.” “Thanks.”
