After running for many minutes, we got to the closest possible location to the village that was close to us. The lush flame shining in front of us and all the tents behind it were the only sources of liberation from the tension we felt at that moment. It made us all feel safe enough to rally to a point in a hard way, and even I did nothing but just shut up and cause a run to get there. And when we got close enough, I waited for everyone to pass.
I knew I could get in myself, and I couldn't put my friends in danger right now. Saving their lives would have made it easier for me to move forward with the idea that we weren't leaving anyone behind at that moment. So I let everyone in through the entrance of the village one by one and finally waited outside. After everyone entered, I prepared myself and started taking steps to get in.
However, something prevented me when I was about to enter the village.
