As Layla and the others gathered stones, rocks, and mud to fashion a final resting place for Amelia, the weight of their collective grief hung heavy in the air. With each stone carefully placed and each handful of mud lovingly molded, they sought to create a sanctuary where their fallen friend could find peace.
Susan's absence from the solemn task did not go unnoticed, her absence a poignant reminder of the toll their recent trials had taken on them all.

Jude stood alongside Layla and the others, his hands joining theirs in the solemn task of fashioning Amelia's final resting place. As they worked in silence, the weight of their grief pressing down upon them like a heavy cloak, Jude's mind drifted to the graves that lay nearby, each one a silent testament to the lives lost in their struggle for survival.
