After leaving the city he walked as far as he could from his home city. Ending up in Devilfish... How in the heck did he get to Minnesota?! Oh well. He set himself up in a homeless shelter, Though mostly he stuck to the streets as he was not worth wasting a space in the shelter that someone else could take up who needed it more.
