Chapter 368

Ralph managed to conclude his diplomatic mission across Lumia around mid-May and could finally send Rowena and Caleb off.

Caleb's and Rowena's funeral would be held on May 17th.

The sky was overcast on the day of the funeral. The cloudy sky and gray clouds made the atmosphere seem all the more stifling.

There was a private cemetery to the north of the Jacobson residence.

It was the resting place of generations of Jacobsons.

Rows upon rows of neatly arranged tombstones rose from the ground. They were akin to the guardians of time as they bore witness to the deaths of countless lives.

Now, two new tombstones had been added to the cemetery. Names, birth dates, and the day of their deaths were engraved on the tombstones.

Mourners were all dressed in shades of black, their expression solemn as they entered the place where the deceased were laid to rest.

The two graves had been arranged with one above the other, silently representing the difference in their generation.

Bouquets of flowers and funeral wreaths surrounded the tombstones.

As the ceremony began, the pastor spoke in a low and solemn voice, guiding everyone through their prayers.

Heads were lowered in mourning.

Time seemed to slow to a heavy crawl.
