Hi.

Hi, it's me, Petar.

Question: Even if the peacocks kind of started the problem, do the swans have any responsibility in what happened?

I think that the swans had a natural reaction. If you heard that your neighbor was going to slaughter you if you did anything to them, you would be afraid. You might prepare something for defence. Or, you might call the police or move out. The swans were afraid. But, they should not have assumed that the peacocks were actually going to harm them. They should have gone to the peacocks and discussed the matter. They should not have created their own arrows.
