Alex returned back to the Stepstones tribe with tears flowing down his face and holding the dead body of Li Yun.
His mind was all but blank as he slowly made his way toward the hall where everyone was gathered.
The hall was just as gloomy, if not more, and entering the room only made Alex feel worse.
The chief turned around to look at him and saw his wounded daughter. "Yun!" he shouted as he swiftly made his way to his daughter to check his injuries.
He grabbed her away from Alex's arms.
"Quickly, we should place you by the fi—" his words stuck in his throat when he saw her pale skin and lifeless eyes, reminding him of what he had seen 7 years ago when the previous beast horde had attacked them.
That time, it had been his wife that had died, and this time…
"Daughter? Yun? Wake up. Please, wake up. Yun?" he started shouting. Everyone turned to look and saw that she had died as well.
