0:00.0 | Now that everything was out in the open, Pendrick could start piecing things together. |
0:17.2 | Montgomery was freer in his talk with Pendrick and talk he did. |
0:21.6 | The leopard man was the one that went after Pendrick that one night. |
0:25.6 | He was a problem. |
0:27.6 | Like Moreau had said, some of the beast folk were slipping. |
0:32.6 | The reason they didn't slip all the way was, well, Moreau. |
0:43.9 | He is a god to them, and for all intents and purposes, Montgomery took another swig of brandy, |
0:53.2 | he is. He made them. He is all-powerful. The man's a genius, and the beast folk are not that, |
0:56.7 | not yet. We have high hopes for the Puma, though. |
1:03.5 | And Maling here. Maling brought in a slightly overcooked rabbit and some potatoes. That religious awe you saw in the beast folk? Montgomery tore into the rabbit. That wasn't an accident. Montgomery |
1:10.3 | came up with those chance. |
1:12.6 | If they could keep the beastfolk from crawling on all fours and chasing stuff and blood, |
1:17.3 | oh man, the blood, they get one taste of it. Pendrick asked about the weird little volleyball things, |
1:26.5 | the small monstrosities with the tiny teeth. |
1:30.0 | Montgomery nodded, yeah, those were kind of practices. |
1:34.2 | Also, the beast folk could have children, though they didn't usually tend to live too long. |
1:39.0 | When Montgomery could snag one, Moreau would shape the child into something resembling a human. For some reason, |
1:45.9 | the beastful hid their young, though. Who knows why? Moing was the most docile and human-looking, |
1:52.2 | the closest to a success. Over the next several days, any time Pendrick ventured out of the enclosure, |
1:59.5 | he couldn't help but study the people, if they could be called that. |
2:04.7 | The humanity in their faces, no matter how strong, couldn't hide the mark of the beast. |
2:12.6 | Some, though, it was uncanny. |
