Ttuh's stomach dropped at the Jedi's readiness to be patient. He had hoped the men and women of their Order lacked the time to practice such a moral, but their reputation didn't deceit. Sharing a smile to the collection of Jedi and trying his best to hide his true emotions on the subject he nodded in approval. Motioning for them to follow he couldn't help but watch the lone Jedi break off from the group. Part of him wanted to call him back, but he knew it would be useless. The 'distraction' provided by one of Moridin's comrades was enough for him to push the thought aside and continue on with his own ruse.
"Then perhaps we could go somewhere more adequate, Master Jedi?"
If they'd follow his lead they'd be brought to a small dining room not far from their current location. If they held their ground he would simply remain where they were and continue the conversation he planned on having here. Looking in the eyes of the Jedi whom addressed him of what exactly the children were up to he'd gladly oblige.
"We try to prepare them for a galaxy and universe that they'd otherwise be impartial to. Much of it is rudimentary skills.. Interacting with one another in ways they would not normally, keeping them active both physically and mentally. Occasionally we even teach the older children to hunt and survive."
He'd pause at the Jedi's comment about not seeing any younglings from the planet in some time. Raising a brow Ttut looked at each of the three Jedi before finally giving them an answer.
"To my knowledge we've been sending the hopefuls as requested.. I believe there were two last month and three already this month..."
He'd reach to his hip before pressing a datapad, it'd be a call to one of the helpers within the Orphanage. They'd no doubt have an "answer" and "justification" for the missing children.

The door would burst open at the Twi'lek's eyes would meet a Jedi, the emotion of rage quickly emanating from her body. In a moments notice she reached to the child closest to her and held the small boy in place, a sharp cutting knife to the lad's throat. She'd stare across at Moridin, a craze apparent on her entire body; this Twi'lek wasn't who she once was. Pulling him a little closer she'd try to answer the stranger's question.
"Nothing that their lives wouldn't bring them to later, Jee'dai."
She spat out the final word as if it were a sin to say it. Holding the blade with a firm grasp, the other children continued their tasks; even the boy she held stared blankly forward without 'life.' If the Jedi dared read anyone's mind within the room he found himself, all he would feel would be pain, anger, sadness, and a desire for death. Each of them had been in the confines of the room for days if not weeks, each of them deprived of sleep, each of them as sick looking as the next. Taking the moment as a chance to escape she yelled in command of the children.
"KILL HIM!"
Like a horde of zombies, each of the manipulated kids would turn to look at the pure-hearted Jedi. Their faces showed the same 'nothing' their souls expressed. Mere shells under the intoxication of the Lesai, they were innocents in a cruel world and if they were lucky Moridin would see that. Each armed with various cutlery the 6 remaining children not held by the corrupted woman would start making their way at the Jedi, all ready to stick him with their pointy knives. Meanwhile the Twi'lek would tug on the boy, pulling him towards an alternate exit to the kitchen.
