Pek-san pulled us all into a small room that had been erected within the town square center. There's nothing outstanding about this space. It's more of a small isolated place for people to be isolated for a moment.
"Now that you're all here, allow me to begin." Pek-san uttered when he looked over all of us.
Yimmie-san was still staring at Kenji-san. Her crestfallen face was already a lot for me to see, but I can only assume that Kenji-san feels worse.
"To start: today is not a day of happiness. We are here to mourn." He said quietly. "I know all of you are already aware of this. I simply need to make this clear so that we are all on the same page."
The four of us nodded in unison to tell Pek-san to continue.
"Alright. Well then, first of all, we will begin with a small statement by me followed by a moment of mourning followed by a small statement by Kenji-san." He motioned to Kenji-san when he finished speaking.
