Shortly after being essentially taken prisoner and led in a direction, other small parties of Raptors started appearing. Either feathered ones like the ones behind us and smaller scaled ones like what the movies portrayed, and even a couple hunting groups that were led by the more upright and intelligent Raptors that could talk. I was interested in seeing where they were taking us and also at how this species was more tribal than anything given that every other species of intelligent creatures I've come across have had a more civilized structure. While thinking that my attention got caught on the conversation being whispered by a pair upfront that were leading us.
"Why are we leading them back to the village? Shouldn't we just kill them here and now and just take the heads back for the leaders?"
"You fool, they want the killers of the pack mother alive and brought in for questioning."
