>“Yeah…” you answer.

>“and you probably noticed it’s moving right?” She asks.

>“yeah…” you answer again

>“Well, we found out why it moves.” Paradise says with a troubled look on her face.

>“it’s being moved by these creatures, they aren’t like the others…“

>“What’s so different about them?” You ask.

>“I think…” She pauses for a bit. “I think we are more dangerous to them than they are to us…“

>That seems odd to you.

>“We killed four of them… the first was completely by accident and the rest were just… too easy…“

>Paradise’s eyes begin to water

>“We knew they would kill us if they got the chance but… it was like tricking children…“

>“They don’t die quietly either, that cry you heard… that was one of them. When one of them dies… Th-they cry… if any others of their k-kind are around they just stare at them until they die…“

>Tears begin to stream down Paradise’s face.

>Home Sick continues the explanation

>“It doesn’t take much too kill them either… we realized we could do it with just some string tied to some nearby poles to trip them… That’s all it takes…“

>Some string tied to some poles.

>That means…

>“My friends and I saw those… were those sheets…“

>“Yeah, those sheets are their remains“

>You were holding a dead body in your hooves.

>“ohh…” You’re not really sure how to process this new information.

>Your new companions don’t seem to eager to continue talking about the subject.

>Again you travel in awkward silence.

>Kinda wish Taku was here, she usually has something pleasant to talk about.

>You reach a street corner

>Paradise stares intently at the street sign and squints a bit.

>“Something wrong?” you ask.

>“Can’t see the name of street, lost my glasses when I was attacked by something when this all started.” She answers.

>“I see” a reply you instantly regret.

>Home Sick chuckles a bit.

>Paradise smiles a little bit too.

>“So, tell us about your friends” says Home Sick.

>Probably trying to keep up the good mood.
