Those who had not seen a Dagi or Dagi-raht up until this point mistook the woman in front of them for a child for a moment. Everyone was of course warned that there would be people coming to offer help, but it didn't stop bewilderment purveying the reaction of the packs.

After a pause where those without an opinion shrugged or otherwise expressed ambivalence, Janius offered a suggestion. "It might be less of a disturbance if the children slept up above. They still cry out with nightmares."

Gallus also gave an opinion, "Not that I, or any of my pack, would really mind staying down with the camp I think, but..." He glanced around to the  various treetop structures, "...if there is not enough room for everyone, we don't all need to squeeze in, right?"

"I, for one, wouldn't mind spending a night in the trees, if only for the new experience," Uthri said with crossed arms and a less serious tone, "Does Ra'kalesh's pride get the luxury as well? Or even us? I believe the offer was for Meesei's pack, not ours, Gallus."
