"... Hmm." [The man seems to be unsure how to explain it. His voice is tired.] "Animal, I'd say. Something that growls low. I can't recall what kind of animal. It stopped as soon as I got to the pasture. It is like it snatched the horses right out of thin air."

[Sora glances at Nari wondering if he knows what that might be. What kind of animal growls but doesn't leave any tracks...?]

Are you sure you didn't see anything?

"... No. Maybe I should quit this venture, after all."

Ahh, I don't think it's your fault! It was whatever attacked the horses.
