It was the day of everyone's departure.
However, as it was still early with the sun just starting to peek from the horizon, only a few were awake. While those, who were awake, packed their things in the shelter and helped with putting the tents away, Sara and Yarjak were somewhere else.

With blank expressions, the two stared at the rubble in the area of the previous east gate. Standing, on the roof of a building that was still barely standing, they had a clear overview of the field.
Sara closed her eyes.
"I'm sorry..." she muttered with trembling lips.
Tears started to well up in her eyes.
"Don't apologize. That would be disrespectful. Instead, thank them for their efforts to fight back." Yarjak consoled her as he put his hand on her shoulder.
