[ The video starts and the girl on the other side of the camera looks... Concerned. ]
Just how many of us are there? [ She starts, almost tripping over her words to elaborate. ] Kids, I mean. Just how many of us here are kids?
Are we all staying at the inns?
[ She pauses, biting her lip for a moment before speaking up again, her voice a little more sure this time. ]
I think we should look out for each other. [ Because adults can't be trusted to. Even the ones who mean well. ] A lot of us are small, I'd bet. And a lot of the other kids I've seen don't really seem like fighters. Those of us that are, we should help them.
Those of us who don't know how to fight can learn from those of us who do know, and those of us who don't want to know how to fight can be taught how to keep a better eye out for themselves and the rest of us.
The more of us that know how to defend ourselves, and the more of us that can keep an eye out for each other, the better chance of survival we have in a situation where we are at a noticeable disadvantage.
[ She wasn't quite suggesting a gang of feral children, but close enough. ]
