The location was decent, but the orphanage itself felt like a forgotten relic. Everything was old and worn down, like something out of a bygone era. The faded green gate was rusted, and the crumbling walls looked as if they might collapse at any moment.

Karina was stunned when she saw the peeling paint on the walls. "How is a place like this still standing? Wouldn't it be classified as a dangerous building?" she asked, unable to hide her shock.
