[He doesn't mind at all. He is quietly happy when she at last does take his hand. He holds it gently, hoping that will reassure her.
As they walk he does his best to simply explain Chroma - how the food that doesn't have colour tastes like ash, and how people have been trying to coordinate the coloured foods so they can all eat well. How it is dangerous to go into the forest, but the Defence Force is there to help keep them all safe.

[Just, you know, the option is there...] But please, take your time to have a look around. One thing- many people have taken the time to organize it well, so I must ask that you put things back where you find them. All right?
