"Old Six, have you forgotten? When you first arrived, I even traded a stalk of spirit grass with a relative in the city to get an elder to feast with you," another black bear said. "Hosting a banquet should come with good food and drink—don't be so stingy..."
"I'm just worried that those few might have escaped from another Demon King's territory. What if they come asking for them back? What then?"
