Ack. Did she just put him in an even worse mood? There just wasn't any pleasing this guy, was there?
"Okay, so..." Taking on a more solemn attitude, since there really wasn't any way to act cheerful while talking about this, Anise leaned forward with her arms folded on the table and began explaining. "There's this church in the ruins, and it didn't look as damaged as the other buildings, so we tried going inside... It was a little chapel, with one big room for services." She still remembered the uncomfortable feeling that came over her when she entered, as if she'd just walked in on a stranger's funeral.
"...The whole room was full of bodies."
The phrase itself felt almost heavy in a way, and she let it linger in the air for a few seconds before going on. "They were like skeletons, and they looked like they just died where they were sitting." At some point, the girl's gaze had fallen to the surface of the table. The memory was still fresh, and still very disturbing. It was one thing to see dead bodies on a battlefield, but in a place where people should have been safe? It was horrible.
