86 – The Talk

The chaos earlier didn't destroy the shelters belonging to my colonists. It's just that a lot of stump scorpions carcasses are scattered around it. All of that is odorless, but it certainly creates an ugly sight.

Lara threw the last bit of dirt on a mound using my colony's makeshift shovel. Even though she looked so exhausted, the blonde woman insisted on burying Gai's corpse right now. In fact, if Seb hadn't stopped her earlier, Lara would have been looking for Yogi's missing body. It looks like the corpse was carried away by the current of the river.

"That seems to be enough." Seb, who I asked to help the girl dig, wiped her sweaty forehead. Then, he put the piece of the escape pod he used to dig in and stuck a large, flat stone as a tombstone. "We'd better get back."

"A moment." Lara watched her fellow tribesmen grave for a few seconds, sighed, and turned around. "Okay, let's go."

Seb picked up the torch that was stuck in the ground and lit the way for Lara.
