After a five-day journey through mountains and valleys, Avril and Banning finally returned to Ira Village.

They shared many hardships together, including a reunion that spanned life and death, a meal of unpalatable hyena meat under the starry sky, and a drink of sweet underground water. Each day was difficult, but upon arriving in Ira Village, their past struggles seemed like a fleeting moment.

Reminiscing about this time of shared hardship and caring for each other day and night, Avril felt a mixture of embarrassment, joy, and reluctance.

Although five days is not a long time, Avril and Banning's emotional bond had surpassed that of five months of cohabitation.

Often, they didn't need language to communicate, just a glance was enough to understand each other.
