Ramella Tarina
Ramella gently woke Daniel up, while Jonas woke up his daughter, Julia. They made their way cautiously to the street. But their caution was unnecessary. Already several dozen people had come out from houses further up on the street and were making their way towards the slaughterhouse, which was once the Tavern of the One Eyed Wolf.
The place where she had intended to find out the newest about Plaxica's whereabouts greeted them with a hellish scene. There were traces of blood on the walls, on the ground, and even outside the tavern. Some of the local guards were the only ones who went closer than thirty feet to the building.
Luckily, Daniel could not fully comprehend what had happened here. He stared ahead of him, at a scene, the full shock of which did not reach him.
Jonas was standing a few feet behind, shielding Julia's eyes.
The four of them stood there for a long time, just watching as the guards searched in vain for survivors. None were found. She felt Jonas's hand on her shoulder.
"Come! I can give you some breakfast."
She took Daniel's hands and they started towards Jonas's home. They barely made fifteen steps, when she heard a voice from behind, a voice she had not heard for more than four years.
"Ramella? What are you doing here?"
