Jon walks silently for a few moments, considering the angel’s question. Maybe he’s not the best person to gauge the character of other people - how long had it taken him to become suspicious that Elias was a murderer? And he knows the sorts of petty things humans can become cruel about, from firsthand experience. He can’t imagine what sort of person he would be if he were subjected to the levels of poverty and oppression he sees on this planet.

“I don’t know,” he says, finally, and gives Murmur an apologetic look. “But I’d like to believe they will.”
