章節 100: Loss Pt.2

When Aveena finally regained some semblance of strength within her legs, Keran supported her with her body and helped her get outside.

There, the two women met up with Ayame again and came across the bodies of all of the departed sect members who were covered with thin blankets.

Their bodies had been arranged neatly along the stone bridge in two rows, allowing Aveena to walk down the middle and say her goodbyes as needed.

But she didn't make it that far.

Keran did not rush her to stop crying, nor did she ask her to continue walking or continue on the path forward. 

Instead, she rubbed her back gently as she tried to get her to look up from the stone ground where she was pressing her head. 

"Aveena... I need you to watch this, okay?" 

*sniff* "W-What...?"
