"I…" Orion began. However, a loud voice sounded in the air.
"I hope we are not late!"
Orion turned his head to the side and saw the Village Chief and the Village Chieftess, Stronghold Leader Zogar, Caretaker Shani, Ivor, and the others behind them. Meanwhile, Seth was positioned at the end of the group.
Orion shook his head in response, "No, you are just on time," Orion responded.
He greeted them one by one, welcoming them with Grace gently carried in his arms.
"WWAAAAHHHH!!"
Suddenly, a loud crying voice rang out in the air, stunning Orion and causing him to stand rooted in his spot in a daze.
