It took the carriages nearly a day to arrive.
Though, I couldn't really complain.
Clementine had searched tens of other villages and small towns.
The majority were destroyed...
But there were some survivors, and so the two of us gathered everyone and traveled back to Lenice.
In total, we saved 234 people.
In total, the combined number of casualties from all the villages... 29,955.
It was a massacre.
A terrible, terrible massacre.
And now, these few hundred people were left with no home, and only a lucky few still had their families.
When we finally got back to Lenice, the city mayor and the soldiers took care of everything.
As for Clementine and me, we just showed our faces and left.
We headed for the library in silence, and even though it was dark out, it was still open.
So as we stepped inside and reached the front desk, Rio was already there, waiting for us.
"I've heard about what happened. You guys are a lot stronger than you look."
Yeah.
