The determination hidden in those freaky eyes was too great for him to ignore, thus Skullius decided to ask what exactly was going on before doing anything else.

"Uhm... no. You really expect me to eat when everyone is looking at me like that?" Skullius gestured at one particular woman whose face was distorted; her eyes were bulging almost inhumanely and her lips were curled in a dark, unpleasant arc.
