When Sawa had brought his wife home to his hut the first time, he had been amazed that he had been blessed with such a wonderful woman. Then, she spoke to him and he had been fearful.
He knew what had been done to so many women. Though he couldn't prove it and had never caught Ganne doing anything, there were too many deaths.
It made him desperate to protect his Larann.
When they had gone to the waters and she had tried to run to the shores, his heart had leapt in fear knowing that there were dangers she seemed unaware of.
But she kept insisting on being in dangerous situations.
Even then, he couldn't bring himself to leave her behind. Ganne was too dangerous. He was afraid that he would come home to find her dead and gone.
With Shuiss and Mura looking after her, he took a moment to walk through the city. With the elders returning to the old village, it was a lot less active and the silence was jarring after so much noise.
