Bab 758: Small Town (6)

Orion noticed that the children, despite their playful demeanor, were also acutely aware of their surroundings. They understood the importance of vigilance and caution, having been taught from a young age about the dangers that lurked beyond the town's borders. This awareness did not dampen their spirits but rather instilled in them a sense of responsibility and respect for their environment. They played and laughed with the knowledge that they were part of something greater—a community that valued their safety and well-being above all else.

The sound of children's laughter, echoing through the town, served as a constant reminder of the resilience and determination of the human spirit. It was a hopeful melody that spoke of a future where life continued to flourish despite adversity. For Orion, it was a poignant reminder of the importance of hope, community, and the enduring power of joy in the face of overwhelming challenges.
