Instead of hurting them for their faults Neeza wanted to train the orphans into becommimg pro delvers by hurting them on regular basis. Neeza was right in some way but, something did not sit right with leader. [Center]"I suppose that is... True, that is vaguely true what you tell me Neeza. It is true yet, inhumane. Their expertise is formed from their experiences in the abyss by fighting and delving deeper, yes. It is harsh however to train someone into an 'super abyss delver' by hurting them so that they become used to the reality of the abyss. We won't force those methods on someone of that age and certainly not on someone that unwillingly led up to our home. Children need to have a childhood too to become decent citizens, just like you Neeza."[/center] The mentioning of spanking Neeza for comming put of bed at this hour definitly made Neeza blush. Neeza definitly did seem to have a thing for being hurt leader thought to himself. He did not judge the girl for anything like that but it might be somewhat troubling at this young age if she underwent the wrong actions. Being hurted by a monster wasn't the same as a light spank after all. Leader had quickly changed the subject to easen up the mood hanging right now. He has questioned her as to why she couldn't sleep this night. Plenty of reasons were at hand with the children missing but they all slept like logs after their activities today. Yet, Neeza was awake from her excitement about the abyss. Leader raised a frown. This was remarkable. [Center]"Neeza, I'm sure you'll be a great delver someday. If you already think about the abyss like this I am sure you'll be the one to get to the bottom of it. But, the abyss is not only full of pain and horror. It can be the most womderfull place as well. So please, use the comfort we give you to enjoy the abyss as well."[/center] Leader gave a small upperbody bow and a cheerfull smile towards the girl while he handed her the tea. Seeing her drink the hot beverage made Chris smile all the more seeing how cute she could really be with that enjoyment on her face. [Center]"Neeze can be quite cute as well."[/center] [hr] [center][h2]Abyss Entrance[/h2][/center] [hr] The group had come to a major conclusion with the bird. They ended up killing it after it had fiercly attacked them and so resulted in a calm environment once more. The trail of the girl could only be noticed by rags her sharp nose at the moment with further no clues due to the darkness of the night. It was better to set up camp for the night and look further for her in the morning. With a bit of luck she would be founs first thing tommorow. Siege had been skinning the meat of the bird slowly, removing all the edible parts for them to eat while Rags tried to get firewood. After a quick scan of the area and some thinking it was clear that the bird nest would be on this platform sheltered from the rain. It had to be made up out of wood that could be used for a fire. Kai and Kryss were still quarreling about having seen the wings of the poor girl while the rest moved on with no notice of them at all.
