Ayl crossed his arms and sighed before responding, in a serious tone. "They're all dead. The entire hideout was wiped clean, in a manner of speaking.. Not a living soul left, and the walls and floors were painted with blood and bodies." He spoke these words rather loudly, with the intention of every one of the newbies overhearing it; maybe that would be the motivation they needed to really get training hard. "Don't worry about Sam and the new girl, though. We ran into some trouble on the return trip, but they're fine.. Although Sam is exceedingly lucky to be," he added after a moment, showing his obvious frustration with the girl. "Glad to know things are going better here, I was worried after seeing that kind of carnage. I'm not exactly comfortable with you leaving the hideout unguarded, though, Atma. Refrain from doing that in the future, when there are no other experienced hunters around. We don't know what we're up against."
