{…Taira.}
Surprised, the fallen prince opened one eye underneath the shade of a forest tree.
'You are surprisingly insistent on speaking to me. Am I the only one who understands the beauty of a little silence?'
{I'd hardly say this place is silent…}
Taira glanced down at the ground floor from his perch within the tree.
The forest floor was lined with human bodies.
Not slaughtered ones, the bodies belonging to the new initiates.
Although they did appear to be on death's door…
Each little human was huffing loudly and rolling around on the ground as they nursed their bruised bodies and aching muscles.
"You've a minute to rest before we continue." Was all the motivation Taira gave them.
"Y-Yes, Dai-Shi."
"U-Understood, sir…"
"Got it, Boss Man.."
"Yes, Master…"
*Unintelligible whimper.*
