We soon arrived at the village entrance. However, no one was there to welcome us apart from the usual guards.
"Uh ! There is no one watching for our arrival ! We did that every time, but now that they have their tattoo, they don't care !"
"Don't say that, Shufa. Maybe something happened, and they couldn't do it." I said, soothing her.
"Hmph"
The guard came to us.
"Hi there ! I'm glad to see you all are alright. This year is really surprising. You are the second big group to arrive today. And the other one returned only two hours ago."
We were surprised as seeing a big group like us during ceremonies was rare. But it's also true we were much more participating.
" Well, then, you should now report to the chief !"
...
We were inside the chief's hut. Chief Alog was very surprised to see us coming. He let us come in and listen to our adventures.
After hearing us, he asked for the proof. That's when we showed him what we got.
