Willam had taken to haunting the forest since she had first came to be in Inferni. She was still trying to work up the courage in order to meet with the leadership in order to get her assignments. The large female had no doubt that it would count against her for taking so long. Still, she was used to leadership calling upon her rather than her having to seek them out. Actually, she was used to getting messages passed down through someone else from leadership. She wasn't used to any sort of one on one meetings. the only time she had set in the presence of leadership was at Mass and Communion as they would lead the services. But to spend time alone with them was unheard of for someone like her. Willam was simply another body that learned and lived their message. So to actually go to the leadership herself frightened her. She was prepared for double penance, if not triple, from delaying this meeting, disrupting the leadership from whatever they might be doing, and well, even thinking herself worthy to actually see leadership and speak with who was in charge. But she had no idea who the go in between was so that she could deliver her message without ever actually speaking to the leader.

The cry that resounded through the trees drew Willam's attention but it didn't seem as if she were the only one that was summoned to the creature's plight. Someone else had gotten there first, a someone that she actually recognized. She smiled as she stared at Ithiel's back, leaving Châtiment near Lystra. "Did you get whatever it was done that you needed to take care of?" As she approached she referenced Ithiel's quick departure from their previous meeting. Willam moved up behind Ithiel in order to peer over his shoulder at what he held in his hands.

She stared down at the bird with the limp wing. "You should kill it and put it out of its suffering." The remake probably sounded odd coming from her since she believed in suffering for the betterment. But there was a difference between suffering to be able to enjoy the pleasures of life and suffering while waiting for the end of life. She classified the bird into the latter category. If it couldn't use its wing then there was no way it could feed itself and would spend days starving to death. That meant that it would be better to end its life now then making it wait. It was what Willam would want if she ever became invalid. She'd rather someone show her mercy and end her life than force her to suffer needlessly until the end.

"Just snap its neck and it should pass swiftly enough." At least that is what Willam would want offered to her. A quick and painless as possible death. It would be the same that she would offer any other. Even when hunting, she didn't want prey to suffer and so she tried to make sure that its life was snuffed as quickly as possible. Of course this same graciousness wasn't offered to those whose intent it was to cause harm, such as the wolves that burnt la Chemin. Those Willam would rather watch suffer for their crimes.
