章 892: A Serious Question, The Unexpected Welcome Upon Entry Within the Settlement

Day 248 - 1:02 PM - Village, Barangay Sayao, Municipality of Sibonga, Province of Cebu

Led by Emilio's group of people that gathered water and edible plants, Mark's group arrived outside the settlement. Emilio and the people who lived here apparently called it a village rather than a settlement. There was not much difference between the two names, but the term settlement meant more general while calling it a village gave a homey feel.

Most of all, calling it a village implied that they all decided to settle down in this place and stop traveling. It was to make a home and take a stand against dangers instead of running away forever.

By the way, Emilio talked to Mark, the former officer seemed to have gotten rid of his nervousness. Back then, Mark's aura and show of contempt were enough to make Emilio nervous. It was different this time as he spoke with Mark properly.
