"See? If you don't behave and leave the village, you'll be eaten by the Tiger Aunt!"
"These are lessons learned from the lives of our predecessors. If you disobey, you'll end up like those two children, not even leaving a body behind!"
"The village is protected by the High Priest, so the Tiger Aunt doesn't dare come. But if you leave the village... Hmph! You could be snatched away even in broad daylight!"
