What was the deal with Lesra's foster family?


Why would they decide to take him in? And what was their arrangement within the three Canadians? Were they just really good friends who lived together?

I think that might be the case. In reality, Lesra was working a summer job to provide for his family when he met the Canadians who saw his potential through his personality and his desire to join law. Upon discovering that he could not read or write they did offer to take him in after talking to his parents and his family wanted him to have a future at the same time so they gave their blessing for Lesra to go live with and be tutored by the Canadians which saw him have a bright future ahead of him and at the same time, his life changed two times, one by learning to read and write and the other getting involved in securing justice for the Hurricane
