章 363: The Departure

Rosie stood beside Hilda, and Lynn rubbed her shoulders to keep her stay strong. Aslan and Mathius were now preparing themselves while waiting for the ship that would pick them up. Rosie had been trying to stay strong since last night, but it was really hard to stop her tears from falling down. She touched the pearl on her ring to clear her nervousness.

Then, her gaze moved to the backs of Aslan and Mathius who were now standing straight. It was still dawn. Even the sun was still shy to show itself. Aslan purposely left while most people on the island were still asleep in their soft, comfortable beds, so he wouldn't have to say goodbye to them one by one.
