The temple was silent.
Nearly everyone had left.
Gone back to their quarters to evacuate.
That wasn't the official decision of the Fiens.
It was merely the choice of those who knew the impending doom was better to be fled that fought.
Those that remained at the temple, had more than thier own lives as skin in this game.
Wonka still remained captive, and the death of Jawbi still begged for vengeance.
The two remaining members of the cohort as well as its outcast - Pop- remained in the temple by the gate; contemplating what to do next.
Lilo was among them, unsure of the choice he made.
By the horizon, beyond the wall, the cravers have already made their way several kilometers in the opposite direction of the army of gluttons.
How did they escape so abruptly without warning?
