[During the drafts and the flooding, Moro simply evacuated. As a result, the den she had taken residence in has since become uninhabitable. Any possessions of San remain in the cave, soggy and growing mold; Moro has no interest in material possessions.

She does, however, have an interest in finding a new den. Which, given her size, is not an easy thing to do. Now that she's back and close to the village, those who wander even a short ways into the forest may find Moro pawing at holes to see if she can dig them wider, or even trying to squeeze into larger pits.

She is not making much success, mind.]

Guns...? [ Tenten has to think about this briefly. ] Oh! Those things that shoot out bullets right? We don't have those in our world. We have ninjutsu, which is more like usage of various elements in order to perform techniques. What happened after these Gods were killed? [ the deity over life and death sounds sort of necessary... ]

They really try that? That's awful! [ Killing things planting trees? crazy! ] You have some really shitty people living in your world.

Nago was shot, and became a demon consumed by his hatred. I was shot, and it stole away my strength as it poisoned me.

[The bullets didn't quite kill the gods, exactly, so much as make them suffer until their own thrashing killed them off or the Forest Spirit claimed them.]

It is the worst of human kind, but it is not as rare as you think. It is their selfishness, their manipulation, and their change that brings nothing but destruction.

So, in other words, they just whittle away after being shot? [ That makes sense! Technology marches on. ]

I wouldn't say that. Sometimes a desire for change can bring something good. Like, switching from an oppressive government to a constructive one.

We are not so weak to die immediately, but solid lead balls fired into our bodies will break our bones and poison us. Those metal balls, made from the iron stolen from our earth.

[That was the most insulting part of it!]

Change is not important. Stability is important, and humans seem to know none of it.
