Dozens of people were gathered around a few stacks of burning logs. Viktor, Taya, and Umilia were standing behind them as they saw these people singing some kind of ancient song that seemed to reach the depths of their souls.
The song sounded sad and melancholic, and Viktor could see how Chief Tamo, Aelita, and their people were looking quite devastated as they saw the bodies of their people turning into ashes.
Considering how their community was quite small, consisting of not more than a few dozen people living in the same place, each of them must have been like family to each other.
"Thank you for joining us…All of your presence certainly helps us feel better. Every one of us feels grateful for all of your help in protecting our temple today," Chief Tamo said with a moved smile.
"We are glad we could be of help. Again, I am sorry about your son and your people," Taya said with a subtle bow of her head.
