A trillion. Her mouth hangs open, a silent 'O' that slowly gains voice in an awe-filled, "Woah." It seems like too many. Even with each person having two hundred and then all the people that are buried - and what if they include animals? Knell tries to wrap her brain around the idea, curious if anyone would come close to knowing the real answer or if this would remain a mystery to everyone in this bone-riddled world.
Still, maybe she can find some frame of reference, and she looks to the Ancient again, who appears to have all the answers - next to her mom of course. "What's the most you've ever seen at once?" Surely it has to be a lot!
Knell's eyes glow vibrant at his question, gaining a vast depth that fails to encompass the cavernous expanse of her hunger for knowledge. "Everything!" Her feet pause in their kicks as she stretches a little higher, aspiring to reach the same level as this stranger. "How did you learn so much?" Does it have to do with his scars? Is he older than he looks? Did he grow up with tutors or lots of books? A thousand possibilities rise in her mind, looking for confirmation in his answer.
