"Interesting," he replies, musing over his sister's retort. Most would probably realise that the middle of a ghostly apocalypse is not the best time to have a philosophical debate, but the yearling has never been the sort of person to notice such things. In his single-mindedness, he cares about nothing but what he wants to say, and he's fully prepared to respond in full to Otem when suddenly the wolf god speaks. He turns, mildly intrigued. Many others seem to have unpleasant things happen to them - his father's mouth leaks black, acidic saliva - but he escapes free of anything. This is interesting, and he deduces that it's probably because he did not attach the spirits, merely commented on them. This seems to show that the spectres have some element of empathy, and also a notion of vengeance. As their father approaches them, the volcano-boy meekly nods and follows his sire obligingly. He glances back as he does so, hoping that Otem will follow - given that he doesn't believe any of the ghost's apparitions, he sees no use in remaining.
