Inside the Village.

"Thank you! for saving us the Great God of Sun!" The surviving elder of the village bow his head at Eko. He felt gratitude at him for he was among the witness and saw him.

"Great God of Sun?" Eko asked in curiosity, but the Archeologist was shocked at the discovery. He muttered "No. No. No. Impossible this is not scientific."

Eko raise his eyebrows and looked at him. Asking for explanation because he can't take another fanatic especially they looked at him in worship like a god being or something.

"Great God of Sun or a Solar Deity was commonly worship at early Egypt and was recorded at Greek Mythology. I know it sounds weird, but people of Malay worship a Solar Deity and practice human sacrifice, but it was impossible unless..."

"Yeah. Yeah." Eko replied. He won't asked there current delima because the fact they're already living in the past. He looked at the village elder who was confused.

"So Chief tell me why this Bandits attacked your village?"

The elder became pale, but when he saw his gaze. He became determine and told the truth.

"Messenger of the Great Sun. They're looking for something, which important for us..."

Few Hours later.

The rest of the squadron choose to rest inside the village. Where the villagers became wary and worship them while others was waiting at Caleb. Who was waiting at the information and started to bet like they did earlier.

Inside the certain hut.

Eko and Han was exchanging information about the Artifact of Sun since he felt something was missing. Which he asked her and found fascinating the fact she didn't hide any information he needed.

Where he learned Sun artifact was a healing items. Which can heal any disease and ill, but they must filled it with 'koi'/ an energy from their faith or sacrifice. He learned the fact their only village who was practicing prayer among the villages who worship the Great Sun.

"Thanks, Han." Eko said and Pat her head. When he saw her smile he felt guilt for not saving her earlier.

"Uhm." Han smiled. Despite of her experience earlier, she didn't lose her smile especially she was praised by her god. "Eko, already leaving?"

"Hmm. Yeah we will leaving." Eko replied and looked at her in curiosity.

"Please bring us including, Han." Han plead and said "In exchange Han will lead you at the altar."

"Altar of the Great Sun?" Eko asked. He won't hide the fact, he was interest especially he himself feel their pity when they pray at their Great Sun.

"Yes please bring Han." She plead.

"Okay deal." Eko replied since they need natives to learned their culture especially they didn't practice human sacrifice. Which is rare considering they're living at past, where human rights was near to non existence.

Another hour has passed. Caleb has returned with bloody clothes and displeased expression. When they asked him, he said.

"They're tight lips, but once they released any information regarding at their location. Their head explode like balloon, but I learned their general location was at Further northwest."

When they heard the general location all them was satisfied especially the one who win at their bet.
