A woman next to him swats the top of his head.  "Fool!  What if zocaltipapatlaca kill her?  Then they mad, they come back again, maybe kill you!"The halfling shakes his head.  "Outsiders strong! Krassus say they kill zocaltipapatlaca already!"  He and the woman continue their argument in Magari.A dwarf in the first group raises his hands to the sky.  "Where headman?  Why headman no help us?"  Others near him begin shouting in Magari.  With a swell of angry words, all the villagers seem to be arguing with each other once again.  The two groups have more or less dissolved though, as it turns into a free-for-all.The adventurers stand mostly ignored once again, but a small girl walks over and tugs shyly at Azryah's hand.  "Hello strange lady," she says.  "You don't like the zocaltipapatlaca ? I don't like them too!  They tell my mommy, I don't allowed to go to the Daunton school any more.  But I like school.  I like the teacher very much.  I want to go back!"</blockquote>
