Gehenna [1]

The happenings outside the forest couldn't make their way in. It was impossible for the Gehenna Tribe to communicate with the outside world, especially not with how deep in the forest they lived.

They continued on with their lives, completely secluded.

At the moment, practically the entire tribe was waiting anxiously for a single man to return.

The atmosphere had been tense since the morning. When the earth began to shake near the afternoon, their anxiety only got worse.

Perhaps nobody realized how close they'd gotten with Damien until he left.

And since Thalia went with him, their worry only worsened.

Of course, the Saintess had supreme confidence in her decision. She showed no signs of stress despite her successor going to fight the Uruk, and that was the only reason the rest of the village wasn't in a panic right now.
