Over a month quickly passed.

Madeline and Gavin had even spent New Year on the Aventiran savanna.

By the time they returned to Clusia, spring had arrived.

He sighed and continued, "We got separated from the group that day. If we had stayed with them, we could have used the rifle for protection and wouldn't have been so terrified"
