"Medium, I think. He's not small, but he's not very big, either."
"That's good, if he was small, I would have let him go." she murmurs before frowning "Aru. Does it bother you that we kill to eat?"

"That's good, if he was small, I would have let him go."
He started pulling the rabbit from the trap carefully.
"Aru. Does it bother you that we kill to eat?"
Aru shook his head, standing and taking her hand again and leading her towards the next trap. "Not at all. I'm a bird of prey, so hunting is natural for me, at least it was after Zay taught me."

"I see." she murmurs, holding his hand gently as she walks, small pause, hesitates "It bothers me."

"I see. It bothers me."
"How come?" he asked her, looking at her. "You have to eat somehow."

"How come? You have to eat somehow."
Smiling faintly, she shakes her head "It's not that, exactly. Just... Hunting itself. The war has been nothing but body after body, loss after loss. Why do we feel the urge to kill others like animals? Bandits hunt the unsuspecting. Enemies hunt enemies." she whispers, eyes closing "There's no point."

Aru looked down. "It's because it's human nature to rule and want power, to be above everyone else," he said quietly. "At least that's what Zay told me. He said that sometimes man wants to rule and try to becomes gods, and that the other races in the world have the same pitfall, which is why we're fighting against ourselves and the Legion. Because someone else wants to rule it all."

"I wish it would all just wash away, like rain." she murmurs quietly before shaking her head "Come on. Have all the traps been checked?"

"I wish it would all just wash away, like rain. Come on. Have all the traps been checked?"
Aru let go of her hand again to pull another rabbit, a little larger, from the trap. "Now they have. Are we ready to return to the cabin?" Holding both rabbits by the ears he took her hand again, feathers on his head fluffing just a little.

"Now they have. Are we ready to return to the cabin?"
"If you wish." Avery murmurs, relaxing "I do have another question for you though."

"If you wish. I do have another question for you though."
Aru nodded and started to lead her back. "What is it?" he asked, looking up at her.

"What is it?"
"How are you going to teach me to see?" Avery murmurs quietly, looking towards his voice "I mean..."

"How are you going to teach me to see? I mean..."
Aru smiled. "Simple." He pulled her to a stop gently, looking around. "We'll start with one sense, like Zay taught me. Right now we'll try smell. What do you smell nearby?"

Opening her mouth, she shuts it when he continues, inhales slowly, eyes closing, sniffs "Herbs." She murmurs automatically, frowning "But I've always smelled those."

"Herbs. But I've always smelled those."
"Concentrate on the more subtle smells. There are herbs, yes, but there's more too." Aru turned and looked about. "You can smell the dirt, the fallen leaves underneath. The moss."

Frowning softly, she nods, eyes closing, exhales slowly, trying to concentrate, brow furrowing
