Back to Westalis. Rosie followed Hilda wherever the old woman went. She didn't want to be left alone at home. Hilda left with her rattan basket. Her slightly bent body was supported by a very sturdy wooden stick.
That morning, Westalis became very crowded. Rosie didn't know the reason. Until she heard that Westalis received the people in the border area of Oceania to stay temporarily in this place because Oceania planned to attack Angaria again.
They talked about how hundreds of troops led by Aslan pushed the Oceanian troops back. Even when one of Oceania's troops used magic to turn the knights into a giant, Aslan could take them down without any magic at all.
"Oh… was Aslan always that cool?" Rosie mumbled after listening to the latest gossip in Westalis while waiting for Hilda. The old woman was choosing the fresh fish sold in the market.
