Eve grumbled. She had gotten into the carriage with Elsi and was leaning against the backrest. Intoxicated by the coziness of the carriage rolling over the bumpy unpaved road, she felt like she would lose consciousness if she closed her eyes for even a moment.

The soldiers flinched and trembled at the sight of the carriage stopping right behind them. Eve spoke.
