They were all afraid of the wrong thing.
Did we see the same thing? They're not seeing it from the same perspective if we are, but I can understand their judgment. It looks terrible if you don't know us or the context. It's easy to assume we're the kind of people who would go to extremes. Haven't both of us proved that more than once? There's only one problem with that thought process. Neither Nefra nor I would ever hurt a child, even if they were the personification of the universe. It's not in us.
Even Barakael and Dagan would never harm a pup.
