"I thought you only really knew the other animals..." Garrot deflates a bit with the comment, but it's enough to erode his resolve such that he starts shoveling some food into his mouth, just like Sxicq. At least someone understands him. But after about thirty seconds of food stuffing, vague chewing, and ravenous swallowing, Garrot comes up for air with a question.

"I mean, your friend was trapped in a mountain for..." Garrot trails off, raising an eyebrow. "I dunno, a long time? Doesn't sound like they get out much." Is that because Sxicq is kind of barbaric? Yes. Is it because Sxicq may have spent years in a mountain? Maybe yes??? People don't just happen out of nowhere, unless your name is Garrot Murtakhor or Matilda Hamilton...
