Under the influence of the Fire Seed, all the snow in the river valley and at the camp had melted away.
The Melting Ice River was vibrant once more. Its waters were crystal clear, and fish darted cheerfully through them.
The fruit trees, their branches once broken by the weight of snow, were now sprouting tender green buds after being pruned by the staff, bursting with vigorous life.
At this moment, the restaurant was filled with a cheerful atmosphere, with laughter echoing from every corner.
The employees who had gone home for Christmas had returned to camp one by one. Reunited in the Crown Territory, they were preparing for the new year's first party.
Of course, gossip about the boss and Jenny had become the first new topic of the year.
Everyone approved of Jenny from the bottom of their hearts.
After all, most of the people at the camp had similar pasts—they too had been heartbroken and hurt.
Yet Jenny had managed to blossom from her scars with gentleness and strength.
