It's knowledge mostly confined to those around to witness it... but there used to be black collars here who were true psychopaths. Thought nothing of trying to burn down whole homes. Or attacking random people. One of them even came back from the dead and destroyed one of the fences, allowing monsters outside the pasture to come inside to try to murder everyone. --Stormy killed him forever, for that.

So, they want to find out if you're reasonable or a psychopath. Though even you're not, they'll watch you closely anyway. --I've had attempts on my life, you know.

Besides, we're all atomized while the sheep are not. There's no organization here. There's no 'pick a fight with one of us, you pick a fight with all of us'. No leader. We'll be the first to be considered as the 'expendable' ones if there's some sort of emergency.

Though, all of that is a plus. We're the only ones with actual freedom here. The sheep have to live in their respective barns and play by the rules. There's nothing keeping you here in the tree house or saying you have to live here and you have to get along with everyone.
