By the time Morena had returned to the estate, it was already getting late, and the rest of that day they spent it cleaning up the estate, fixing the building, and most importantly, giving all those who died in the attack a proper burial.
The worst part of it all was telling the families of those who died the truth; Morena decided to do it herself. She believed that it was her fault that the attack even happened in the first place, and she wanted to tell them herself.
It was a way to hold herself responsible.
It was a long, cruel day, and the night wasn't much better. Even though they had finished putting out all the fires and cleaning up the ash and debris, the place wasn't fully fixed yet.
Broken walls, doors that hadn't been completely fixed, and, because they hadn't been able to recruit more people yet, the estate was completely silent during the night.
