You've lost count of how many times you've been told that your overwhelming capacity for empathy will be the death of you one day.

A pretty face born into wealth and comfort, by all means, there should have been no reason for a merchant's daughter to care about anything or anyone that didn't share her fortune. And most of them didn't, the snobby, rich brats that had let their wealth go to their heads and found the plight of the majority that failed to share their fortune beneath their notice and their care.

Your parents had been two such folk (perhaps that was how that even after all these years, they had always fallen short of filing for divorce) but for whatever reason their teachings had failed to impact you. And as much as they disapproved of you associating with the common folk, much less assisting them, their complaints fell on deaf ears, for in your mind, it was the duty of the fortunate to assist those that were not as lucky.

Yes, it may very well lead to a premature death one day. But you figure that that wouldn't be the worst way to go, in the end.
