Perking up when she heard another woman's voice, not that of Helga's, speaking to her, Estelle opened her eyes and nodded as she curiously accepted the letter. The woman speaking had long black hair, lightly colored innocent looking eyes, and a slim, slender figure. [color=FFCCCC]"Ah yes, may not act like one but Grim is a girl,"[/color] she let out a light chuckle causing her breasts to bounce and disturb the water at the female's hesitance concerning the youngin's gender. The paper was already getting soiled from all the steam and moisture in the hot spring as she peeled the folded edges back, her eyes scanning the first few words of the message before beginning to tear up. By the end of it, her crying and sniffling had soaked the paper more than the humid environment had and she clutched onto the delivery woman's arm for balance as she started to get too emotional to hold herself upright. [color=FFCCCC]"H-how could she?! That selfish brat! She didn't even give us a chance to say goodbye in person.."[/color] Estelle sniffled some more and coughed a bit as she swiped at her runny nose, quite obviously failing to hold back her emotions.

Helga put a concerned palm against the neko's shivering back, her gigantic hand covering it almost entirely. Her humongous height had allowed her to read over Estelle's shoulder and she understood why this woman was crying so vehemently. "Vy dear. Plz zont shed much tears. The little ting hath moved on now. Think happy thoughts. Maybe vu meet her again sometay," Helga swiped at her own tear dribbling down her cheek as she empathized with the Beastwoman. 

Toughening up her demeanor, Estelle wiped her face of any signs of sadness and forced a strong visage. She snorted up a lob of snot that threatened to roll down to her lip. [color=FFCCCC]"Hmph! You guys are right. Grim is a big girl now and has moved on to big girl things and... and... Uwahhh!"[/color] The heavy chested woman was a bawling mess at this point, unable to hold it together. More women had entered the hot springs now and began to crowd around the crying cat girl in attempts to console her. [color=FFCCCC]"What're we gonna do? We're already a very small group, but now that that good for nothing brat ditched I don't think we can even call us a group anymore!"[/color] Her arms were thrown up in defeat.

Meanwhile, Helga it seemed was the only one paying attention to peculiar noises erupting from the other side of the hot-spring rock wall. Because of her large stature, she was much higher above the rest of the women and thus had better ear shot of what the heck was actually happening on the men's side. It was mostly just muffles and enthusiastic voices that were becoming incomprehensible due to the pouring water, but she recognized a menacing tone of determination in the jumbled words. 

Stroking Estelle's head and rubbing a weak spot behind the Beastlady's cat ears, it was evident that the sorrowful woman had cried herself to a fatigued state of sleepiness and bliss. "Vou poor ting. Look at chu now. Ur face all puffy like a perooka salami on a hot summerz dey!" Head swiveling like an owl as she heard a terrified noise coming from what sounded like an adolescent boy, Helga narrowed her eyes above the wall only to catch a pair of bunny ears descending. [i]Vose sneaky bastards![/i] Passing the now dozing Estelle onto the black haired twig woman, the monstrous lady now had an angry scowl on her face as she placed firm hands on the spring boulders, climbing up the wall with her back muscles flexing with each movement. The other women in the bath could only watch in utter awe and shock at the gigantic, manly build, but one troll girl in particular wasn't too amused. "Ah yeah vhat is Helga. I verk vith her in zeh meat shop. Half ogre the woman iz," she informed the pool occupants.

Finally making it to the top of the stone barrier, Helga would find herself making face to face eye contact with a silver haired man with an eye patch. With an inhuman snarl, the ogre hybrid easily wrapped one large hand around the tanned man's neck, her gigantic palm actually engulfing his entire head as she choked him out and shook him violently back and forth. "Look vhat I found me ladees! Perverts!" she called down from the rock tower, now holding Rhein by the head and flailing his body around in the night sky as he was no longer supported by the man made ladder below which had threatened to topple due to the initial savage movement of Helga's attack.

Women screamed and grabbed their towels hurriedly as they wrapped themselves to protect their goodies from prying eyes. All the ruckus and commotion only led to Estelle getting awoken and she rubbed her face awake with a mewling yawn. Drowsy eyed and drooling a bit, she moved her head off of the tall lady's arm and looked up at Helga. [color=FFCCCC]"W-what's with all the noi-"[/color] It looked like a scene from King Kong where the over-sized gorilla was clutching onto the Empire State Building with one hand and had the damsel in distress in the other. Squinting her eyes, it was nice to be blessed with night vision as a neko and she could easily make out that the poor ragdoll of a man being shucked around was in fact Rhein. Scrambling out of the pool in a panic, she was completely naked as she ran towards the stone wall, shouting and yelling desperately at Helga to stop. [color=FFCCCC]"Oh my god you're going to kill him! Please, please stop! I know that man!"[/color] She begged her, tears again welling up in her eyes again.
