He first looked to Hikitsu. "You don't have to explain to her what the Maw are, she's seen them." He couldn't help but smile remembering how she knew, still even now he was impressed at how she had not been scared and instead wanted to protect him. To Takiko he said. "They are what attacked us when we first met."
Of course, he would have to fill in some of the details Hikitsu did not know since he had obviously went somewhere else after they all left. Some of those details were not pleasant. A lot of arguing had indeed happened and things didn't go very well because they all were too stubborn.
"After we met Hikitsu we did all leave and Tomite told us some of the story. He didn't want to talk much about it, and it didn't help that he and I got into an arguement rather quickly too. Later on Tomite decided to go look for Hikitsu himself. You left to follow him and I left Souren to look after Hatsui and Namame and followed."
He sighed, because the next part was all due to the sheer stubbornness of Takiko and Tomite, not that he had been much better. "Of course, that didn't go very well. You did find Tomite and things were said between you that made him very upset. I happened to hear it also, but you didn't know that at the time. Still, even though your words hurt, I followed you, because I didn't want anything bad to happen to you."
"Eventually I met up with you, and that went over about as well as your talk with Tomite. You ran away at that point and came upon the ice that held Ayla. And we found Hikitsu again. Of course his warning came just a bit too late."
Truly, the moment she had touched the ice and she shouted a warning to him and Hikitsu arrived and told them not to touch it, that was really when he realized that her words claiming she loved another didn't matter. He'd do anything to have her care for him instead, and he wasn't going to let harm come to her if he could do anything to help it, no matter what may happen to him in return.
"I'll leave the next part to Hikitsu since he probably can tell the story better now. Unless you have questions about what we argued about, Takiko. I'm sure you can figure it out yourself and you may not wish to hear the cruel words you said to both of us."
