Capítulo 108: Chapter 19 - Part 2

The town's people looked towards them curiously as well, but they did not rush to crowd around them as they had outside the walls. They all seemed to be busy.

By seats, he meant the low stone wall surrounding the bakery and its thatched longhouse, with its open windows filling the air with the scent of freshly baked bread and sweets.
