When the Purple Haze landed earlier, it created tremors below which alerted the tribe living below. Due to that, they had no choice but to emerge from underground to see what the commotion was about.
Usually, they only go up to look for food or when they are going to hunt a Mutant Beast, otherwise they all stay underground.
Well, that was according to the tribe elder who explained things to me.
Dannae was already back to her mother's side and I explained to this elder what happened. Why that girl was with me, and my purpose for coming here. I took off her restraint but I still kept my hold on the gun.
Though it's expected, they were about to punish her for going up, only the Tribe Elder voted against it and called for an investigation.
Well, he's the one with the highest power here, he's the sole Rank 5 Mortal.
