A week after Suja fell ill, the old man was carried out by Seb on his back, to Manu who was forging iron in the hut as usual. The former tribe leader was finally able to open his eyes.
"I'm sorry and thanks for helping me, Sebastian." Suja said in a barely understandable voice.
"It's nothing." Smiling, Seb helps Suja sit on the chair with Manu's help.
"You should just rest inside, Suja." Manu says while adjusting Suja's position to be more comfortable. "It's cold outside and you're still not well."
"I'm bored." Suja chuckled with his slanted mouth. "And did you forget? I promised to help you until the end."
Leva, who came to check from a distance, just narrowed her eyes and returned to the training dummy.
"But I'm feeling a lot better." Manu replied. "My focus is getting better and my pain isn't as bad as it used to be."
Suja sighed as he closed his eyes. "Let me do this.... Let me at least pretend to make a contribution to you guys."
