"Can we go see it sometime?" was what they ended up landing on, finding that the most pertinent inquiry of them all. Witnessing it seemed the sole path to actually understanding. "Unless we can't, without it eating us..."
They envisioned a predator's mouth of sorts breaking through the dirt and undergrowth to clamp its jaws around a wide area before sinking back into the earth.
As they became more confident in the frozen mossball game, Beachkit bounded over to intercept its roll and whapped it with vigor, sending the thing flying a little further than they'd intended. "I'll get it!" they declared but were already dashing after the runaway ball. Not even the limits of camp could stop either of them as Beachkit finally stopped it a tail-length outside of the clearing before realizing where they were. Still well within seeing distance, but they'd never gone out this far.
The momentary awe was interrupted by a snowflake colliding with their wide eyes, and Beachkit shrunk back to blink it away. Hastily, they hooked the mossball and sent it headed back towards Wolfpaw with themselves in tow.

"I don't think it's gonna eat us." Wolfpaw had never been a huge fan of 'sneaking babies out of camp', just seemed foolish was all..
"Why don't we go over there once you're apprenticed? Just stick close to me 'n you'll be fine." He knew the camp before the collapse, and had a fair idea of the layout following the destruction.
Beachkit darted off after the ball, but -- oh, dung. Wolfpaw hadn't realized it was going past camp boundaries 'til it was too late, and Beachkit was outside. His pelt bristled as he hurried to join him - had to make sure he was quickly back within camp walls, when the start of snowfall hit him too.
Wolfpaw blinked at the large snowflakes but redirected his attention to making sure Beachkit was safe.
"Way to give me a heart attack, jeeze!" Once he was back inside camp, Wolfpaw relaxed a bit and batted the ball back toward him - but angled so it wouldn't leave camp this time, hopefully.
