"Was that Esme just now?"
Kara appeared among the Elves, clearly aware of their deep glare as she spoke and entered their midst. She flexed her glasses a little as she looked around her.
"And this destruction… this was her residence, was it not? What happened here?"
The Elves completely ignored Kara as they went on to pick their comrades—first the Youngs, and then the Elders who couldn't stand on their own.
"I'm asking for an explanation here!" She yelled out, fuming as she folded her hands.
"Shut up, filthy human."
Kara's gaze shifted in the direction of the Elf who spoke up first. The older-looking lady shot her a disdainful look as she spoke up some more. "Can't you read the room?"
The girl laughed a little sheepishly as soon as she heard that.
"Humans and their beast-like intelligence…" Murmurs began to leak out of the lips of other Elves, and Kara found herself looking in the direction of each word.
