Meesei nodded. "Yes, it is a general rule to keep them away from any glassware unsupervised. Especially if they also have Leaps with them. Part of me is reluctant to want them to teach him any commands. I imagine the trouble they could get into with a tamed, trained wamasu would be...magnified."

Pausing a moment to finish off the last of her tea, another thought crossed Meesei's mind. "I do not suppose you have gained any pets over the last few years? We are always careful to keep Leaps away from any potential prey animals that we would like to keep alive." She commented. At the same time, she was also starting to wonder at what point it would be prudent to bring up their reason for visiting Black Marsh to begin with.

It was difficult to say how Yizan was taking all of the information that Gallus was describing to him. as it was difficult for him to be expressive in his condition. Even some of the muscles in his face had started to atrophy from his malnutrition. "So those people...didn't have a cure at all? And my mother, she acted like your leader to help the cultists take your souls? That sounds horrible; mother would never want to be a part of that. But if they had a cure then...well you were able to stop them, right? H-how did mother die?"

Seeing the fear start to form on Yizan's face, Najan interjected in a less hostile, but still firm tone. "Outsider...Gallus, I want to know what happened to my sister, I really do, but please do not force my nephew to wait any longer for the news he has been awaiting. If you have a way to help his condition, please just tell us."
