Hey there!

The word "fain" means willing to or obliged under certain circumstances. An example sentence might be: 

"He was fain to do the thing his friend asked since he knew he would be compensated for it."

If you have single word answers, choose the answer that is most like "willing" or "obliged."

Hope this helped you out! :-)
