Good. Karla had been hoping for an offer like that, but hadn't wanted to ask. She didn't want Reno to think her offer to help had come with strings, for one, and she definitely didn't want to come across like a nosy tourist, coming to peer at the poor and unfortunate.

"It's a deal," she said immediately. "The only thing keeping me from going crazy when I think about spending the next four years here is knowing that I can use that time to prepare for what I'm facing when I get home. I'm doubting that a visit to Edge is going to be a romp through the park with puppies and unicorns, but I'm not going to turn down anything that helps me get ready for the future."

She also just really wanted to help, but she kept that bit to herself.
