Ava, Marcus, Erik, Alexia, and Garrett had been struggling against the bitterly cold weather and treacherous terrain for three weeks when they finally caught sight of the silhouette of Liberty Watch Village on the horizon.

The sight was a welcome distraction. However, it was obvious even from a distance that their once-bustling village had been transformed into a solemn battlefield due to the war with Frant, and there was now an unsettling silence.

The farmlands had been abandoned, the chilling winter winds had replaced children's laughter, and the cold replaced the warmth coming out of the chimneys.

As they got closer, the winter sun, which was just about to set, cast an ethereal glow on the snow-covered roofs and the frosted paths.

The harsh realities of war, such as houses with barricades and reinforced walls, were illuminated by the icy light. Their people's spirit persisted despite the desolation, reflecting a resilience that brought a surge of pride to their frozen hearts.

The sight of their battle-scarred but still-standing village invigorated the group, and they picked up the pace of their travels.

They anticipated that Frant would launch an attack while they were absent but believed the village could withstand it.

The sound of their boots crunching on the frozen ground reverberated throughout the otherwise quiet village, serving as a constant reminder of the enormous size of their adversary.

When they arrived, a small group of hardy and determined villagers greeted them and welcomed them to the village.

Their warm eyes and genuine smiles cut through the biting cold, and their heartfelt greetings were evidence of their unwavering commitment to the community.

The faces of Erik, Alexia, Ava, Garrett, and Marcus were simultaneously worn out and triumphant. The challenges they had to overcome and the opponents they had prevailed over now had significance for them.

They brought with them, on their journey back home, the promise of a brighter future. However, the once-familiar pathways that were lined with vegetation that had been well-maintained were now devoid of any sign of life.

A woman made her way out of the small group of villagers who had survived. She approached the group in a solemn manner that was in keeping with the subdued tones of their wintry environment.

Marcus, the usually stoic guardian, regarded her with concern, his brow furrowed. The silence was palpable, like a heavy blanket that added to the burden of their tired bodies.

"What happened here?" he finally asked, his voice barely audible above the howling wind.

The woman's eyes did not flinch, reflecting the grim reality of their situation.

"The village has been relocated; we were forced to proceed due to Frant's attacks," she explained, her voice tinged with regret.

"Only a few of us remained here, including Amos. He is waiting for you...in the village hall." The news struck them like a cold wave.

Their home and people had been uprooted from the land they had loved and defended.

Yet, amid the desolation, a spark of hope ignited their new home. Amos was waiting. I think you should take a look at

Their guide, friend, and symbol of their community's tenacity. The group set out for the village hall with renewed zeal, their footsteps resounding ominously on the snow-covered path.

As they walked, they were struck by the strange silence of their village. Where once there was laughter and chatter, now only the wind sang a mournful song.

They felt a range of emotions when they saw the overgrown vegetation. The air became tense as they approached the village hall. The once vibrant heart of their community now stood solemnly against the white backdrop of winter, its wooden structure looking more intimidating than ever.

Their journey had led them back home, but it was not the same as when they left it.

Stepping through the village hall's sturdy doors, their gaze was drawn to Amos, who sat alone at a large wooden table, a map of their region spread before him.

His gaze was downward, his fingers tracing the paths and landmarks on the map, and his shoulders sagged from the weight of his responsibilities.

When he noticed their arrival, he looked up, his eyes shining with relief at their return.

"Welcome back," said Amos. Alexia took the initiative, approaching him and speaking with him.

"Amos, what happened?" she inquired, her voice concerned. The village chief sighed deeply, his fingers tapping on the table.

"Frant's forces launched several attacks on the village," he said calmly, despite the gravity of his words. With the few people we had available, there was no way we could've defended ourselves. But we managed to hold them off long enough to gather the crops and relocate."

His words painted a bleak picture of their once-peaceful village, now a battlefield scarred by the Frant's forces' relentless attacks.

"We moved hastily, but we did manage to move," he continued, attempting to inject hope into the gloomy atmosphere.

"But now, our situation is dire. We must solve the problem of food production. That was the reason why we sent you to retrieve the Auburn Pine."

"Erik, we need your help to solve the problem," he said, facing Erik. We'll do it with your brain crystal power. We're counting on you."

"I am ready to help, Amos," Erik replied without hesitation, his voice firm. That's why I accompanied Alexia and the others."

He came to a halt, turning to face his companions. They were battered and tired from their journey and battles, but they nodded in agreement, their spirits unafraid.

Their determination was as strong as the day they set out. "Lead the way," Erik said, returning his gaze to Amos.

The village elder rose from his seat at the table and led the group out of the hall. As they stepped outside, the cold winter air nipped at their faces, but they marched on, their footsteps leaving a trail in the fresh snow.

Their destination was the ancient underground city, which would become their new home. They'd have to start all over again in this subterranean haven.
