Chapter 79 – Now, we run
Year 2, Winter, First Month, Third Week.
With everything moving as planned, the rescue team left and soon was time for Omero to go outside. Karl had given him the go signal and they would soon start forming the earth barrier, so he moved.
Time seemed to pass very slowly, they could barely hear the conversation outside. Only a few key members waited for Omero close to the border. The rest had already been moved to the opposite side of the barrier, and everything they could spare was placed between them and the place where the explosion would happen. They were positioned in a way to put the children, then the elders and sick, and last the healthy ones, so any impact could be smoothed by the ones that could resist it. Additionally, the defenders formed a line of protection around them, holding their shields tight ready to activate all Arrays at the key moment.
