Suja is buried immediately that morning. No ceremony at all. There is no such thing as a speech to mention the achievements of the deceased.
There were only people gathered to dig a hole and bury the old man. After the grave was finally finished, my colonists just looked at it as a mound of soils among the other mounds.
Only Leva was nowhere to be seen.
One by one, my colonists withdrew, leaving Manu, who was still there for a few more moments, before finally walking back towards the house.
Arriving at the place, Manu came to Leva, who was sitting in the corner of the main room.
"What?" Leva asked without seeing her friend's face.
"Perhaps I know the most about feeling grudges." Manu sat opposite the red-haired woman. "So maybe I know how you feel about Suja. But won't you forgive him after all that happened? I think he's made his redemption. And now he's gone. There's no point in keeping that grudge in you, Leva."
