Ludmila took a bandage from her body, tore off a part, wrapped the starflowers on the ground, and cradling the severed hand, she approached the laundry girls.
She could not recognize the girl lying on the ground since it had already been dark last night.
But the girl's severed hand said it all.
Of course, there were also these starflowers.
The laundry girls were crying, "The captain only ordered us to come get soap! How could this happen..."
Ludmila stood silently.
At this moment, Brother Yeca Neiko rushed to her side, "You must return to your post! Without you, Divine Arrow cannot be guided!"
The Monk glanced at the girl on the ground, sighed, took the severed hand and starflowers, "I'll take care of this here, you go back to your post!"
Ludmila nodded her head, walked towards the bathhouse, looking back with every step she took.
