You get to your feet and the chatter in the room starts to fizzle out into a silence. "Um, who are you people ? Were you guys shrunk down too ?", the people surrounding you now began whispering among themselves, all seeming very surprised at what you said. What you couldn't help but notice was their language. Besides the two men from before everyone here spoke a language that you never heard before, almost as if it were made up. You face the pair and begin to speak.
"You two can speak english, can't you ?", you asked causing all of the eyes in the room to land on them. The two looked at each other before turning back to you. "Are you an upper being ?", one of the men spoke. You now noticed his heavy accent, still it was unlike any accent you have ever heard. "You speak and look like the Gods but you are our size. That must mean that you are an upper being that the Gods corrected.", the other man said.
Corrected ? What are these people on about ?. It seemed that everything that Jen was talking about was true; this family really does breed tiny people and treat themselves like Gods, they even have the people that they are breeding in on it.
"What exactly do you mean by corrected ?", you asked. "All beings are meant to be smaller than the Gods whether it be lower beings or upper beings. All upper beings shall be corrected as you have.", the man from before explained.
The complete confidence in his voice gave it all away. He and everyone else in here believes in this madness. You were beginning to regret not helping Jennifer with her mission, if you knew that the situation was this bad you might have been more inclined to help. Now that you think about it Jennifer is out there somewhere being hunted at a tiny size and it was all your fault, not to mention her team who died all because of you. You were starting to have a change of heart. Surviving couldn't be your only goal anymore, you needed to do something.
"May I have your clothes ?", the man said regaining your attention. "What !?", you said in a stern tone. "Goddess Elizabeth said she would take you away from paradise, but I can take your place as an act of goodwill", he said bargaining with you.
"You think I want to be here !?", you said with the same attitude. "Even if I did, she would just take you away and bring you to some other 'paradise'.", you said. You saw the hope leave both of the men's eyes when you said this. Their plan was doomed to fail either way, it's best you stop it here and now.
But you couldn't dwell on that right now you needed to learn everything you could if you were going to try and find a way to help these poor people. So you asked the most crucial question...
"Have any of you seen a woman in a green dress, about a head taller than me, calls herself Jennifer ?", you asked looking around the room. Everyone seemed to understand what you were saying but all they gave were more looks of confusion. "Dress ?", one of the pregnant woman imitated you before speaking in her native tongue. It seemed like these people have never even heard the word 'Dress' before. I did make sense as everyone here seemed to be wearing grey clothing.
"Okay...does this town have some kind of leader ?", you asked. Again everyone in the room spoke amongst themselves and while you didn't understand them you heard one thing, or perhaps one name, going around: Shara. "Shara is our leader...", one of the men spoke again,"...she was an upper being like you and speaks with Goddess Elizabeth on our behalf.",
That sounds promising. This Shara might be able to help you get to a shrinking device or find Jennifer, she would definitely be of more use to you than people you couldn't even understand. At the same time, she might believe that the giant family are Gods too and won't help you escape. It might be best to just explore the town and see what you can find out.
