Gulool Ja overheard her saying she's going to kill his father, so her plan is to chase him across the map until he's cornered, then to talk at him until he understands that while Auntie Lamaty'i is going to make him an orphan, she'll always consider him family? As long as she gets to have her say, I suppose! I'm pretty sure I've seen slashers or thrillers with this situation except they acknowledge how terrifying it is to the kid. As horrifying as Zoraal Ja may be as a father, Wuk Lamat shouldn't come across as very trustworthy, either. Of course, then her Black Hole Sue aura kicks in and suddenly Gulool Ja wants to get to know Wuk Lamat too, as well as her found family, and WoL's found family (no, really).

The Alisaie I knew would have had no problem telling everybody just how messed up this is. Someone please come undo her tempering, I think my WoL is too far gone to care.
Okay somehow hidden blocks don't count towards the character minimum. 20+ years of forum technology existing....for the love of crispy tacos.

I thought that Gulool Ja assumed that Wuk Lamat meant that she intended to kill Otis, who has been more of a father to him than Zoraal Ja, which is why he was scared. When she clarified, then he opened up to her.
