The ringing in her ears very slowly fading, Nobunaga didn't spare any further attention to the bird she had already crippled and left to bleed out. Taking notice of the other fowl's stunned state, the petite girl didn't waste a single moment in sprinting towards the creature and swinging her katana down in a flash of steel. It parted flesh and bone cleanly, and left the bird's head sailing through the air away from its twitching body. She straightened, and flicked the blood from her sword before sheathing it cleanly. Her hearing was beginning to return in full. "... A shame there isn't a cooking fire, at least these wretched fowl could have served a purpose in death," she commented, glancing towards the others... ... Ah... Misaki... it was no small wonder she had taken that piercing shriek more poorly then anyone else. She had the ears of a fox, after all. Given the kitsune's nature as her chief source of information, and someone who originated from her homeland... The petite girl approached. The thuds from beyond their room already indicated that they should not linger any longer then they had already. She placed a hand on the other girl's shoulder, and then offered one to her. She could not be sure if Misaki's hearing had returned, but her wordless actions had to be enough to understand. She had no intention of leaving behind her clearest source of information, but they had to move quickly. [@Rune_Alchemist][@PKMNB0Y][@Crimson Paladin]
