Lemenja throws a stone with her foot, Kruh notices her blank stare, approaches her and takes her hand to pull her closer.

-We'll make it, all of us together, smiles Kruh.

- I hope so, Lemenja sighs, shaking her head.

- You know you can tell me anything, Lemenja.

-I know, Kruh, but it's complicated.

Kruh looks at her,

-Listen, right now you've got nothing to think about but the battle, we need you here. If it's too hard

Kruh taps her shoulders,

-Leave your problems on my shoulders, they're solid. I want it to be lucid inside, she pats her head, okay?

- Thank you, it really means a lot to me.

- Don't forget we're a family, if you suffer I suffer too.

-She's right, says a male voice

Lysander appears behind Kruh,

- We're a complete being, you're the voice, Kruh is the skin, Uary is the hands and I'm the head, smiles Lysander.

Kruh looks at Lysander and laughs.

- You're the head and since when? says Kruh

-Since we met, madame, I've been tanning lying on the road.

-OOhhhh you dared, she says shocked

Lysander moves faster, Kruh looks at Lemenja who nods with a smile that Kruh returns before catching up with Lysander.

- So you remember our first meeting...

Lemenja smiles, turning her head to see Uary trailing behind, reading the notebook. She slows down to Uary's level.

-Still reading, says Lemenja

-...

-ooh Uary I'm talking to you,

Lemenja grabs the book, Uary looks at her

-What do you want? annoyed Uary

Lemenja raises her eyebrows in surprise

-I just want to talk to you, relax

-And you can see I'm reading, no, she snatches her notebook from Lemenja's hand, I'm not your spare tire.

-Hey, calm down!

-Learn to keep to yourself, Uary tells her unkindly.

uary pushes Lemenja forward, leaving her behind

...

The group took refuge in an isolated, abandoned house.

-Shit, shit, says Uary, frenetically turning the pages of the notebook.

- What's happened to you? asks Kruh

-Watch out, she's scathing today! says Lemenja, sitting down on a chair.

Uary glares at her

- There's nothing but blank pages, he hasn't finished. shit!

- And what are you going to do about it? asks an interested Lysander

-I'm sure I'll write the rest, but I don't have his intelligence. Uary throws the notebook across the room. Damn it!

Kruh picks it up and reads it

- I understand better your attachment to this book, you're copying its inventions. Look at the same bombs you've just created! Kruh shows the page to Lysander, who nods in agreement.
