Just try to answer her questions calmly from now on.
"Whats a kalashtar? How do you give a baby to the sea? The sea isnt alive.... Why would you give a baby to the sea? Cant you just eat and gather crabs?" Naira is seeming a bit overwhelmed..
Just answer one question at a time.
"I... A kalashtar is a type of humanoid... They look like humans, but have telepathy... Giving a baby to the sea... It means that... Th-they tried to..." She says something else, but its inaudibly quiet
Explain it in a more vague way.
H-how?
They "gave her away." Or abandoned her.
I.. I.... "They..... The parents.... They tried to give you away..... To abandon you..."
"Why would someone give away a person?"
I.... I... I cant explain this.... How do you tell a child that their parents didnt want them?
They didn't have enough resources to provide for all of you.
"Th-they didnt have enough resources for everyone..."
"Then why not just hunt more? Or just buy more?" *I love how little children tend to understand money*
You can answer that, right?
I can... I can try... "... Things arent that simple.... Most people cant hunt, and there wasnt enough things to hunt... And money doesnt magically appear.... They didnt have enough to buy anything"
"Then... Why woud they just give one child for the ocean to take care of?"
You need to tell her more of the truth. Not everything. But she needs to understand what kind of thing they did to her.
(I.... I.... How do I tell a child that someone wanted to kill them? I.... Thats...)
You don't have to tell her that. But make sure she understands that they weren't being kind.
(H-how?)
Tell them they only gave her to the ocean because of themselves, not for her.
"The ocean... The ocean isnt a good parent... They gave you to the ocean to help themselves... Not to make sure you had a better life and food...."
"Why is the ocean a bad parent?"
It doesn't try to take care of you. It leaves you to fend for yourself.
"The ocean... Doesnt try to take care of you... It leaves you on your own to fight for yourself... Survive alone..."
"... Does that mean the ocean also kinda gave me away? To Farrorre and Ae?"
Yes.
She just nods
"Did... The ocean lead Sarana there?"
"Not exactly."
"You said it was some kind of portal, right? Was it an ocean portal? Or a different kind?"
"A different kind."
"What kind was it?"
"A portal from another plane of reality."
"Plane of reality?"
