10.1 Blood and Sweat

They carefully put down Sisi on the ground. They were all crying as they gather around her, water dripped down from their bodies.

Sisi's eyes were closed, her face was pale and bloodless. Her stomach was bloated, full of river water.

Sisi has been with them only for a short period of time yet she was good to them all, friendly and very soft spoken.

The wind sweeps through them, cold as a corpse, making Serra shiver. Her wet gray  hair looked like silver in the bright sky. The sword felt cold and lonely on her side. Their clothes were wet, their eyes red and puffy from drowning and crying.

The world around them fell silent, even the sound of the river and the woods were like muted and all they can hear is the sound of sorrow and grief of their cries.
