Opaque reality [ 24 ]

Winterseed II

After Rowan left the village a few days ago, having killed Fagin and dominating the land, the people didn't return to their previous lazy way of life. Instead, they began working hard to accomplish the progress Rowan had spoken about. His speech that day transformed their mentality, making them almost as hopeful and hardworking as the people of Winterseed.

For the last three days, they woke up very early and took on tasks they had never taken seriously during Lord Fagin's reign.

Ren was very happy about the changes that Rowan had made in the village. He felt truly proud to be alive and even serving under him. His wife and daughters, who had returned from the nearby village where he had hidden them, were also happy when they came back and saw the lazy youths ready to work instead of ogling at girls all day.
