What Tem knows?

The young man and woman who were busy putting the chairs in rows, after they are done they all starts sitting down, the other people entry the town hall and starts sitting down on the chairs, the village head sitting on her chair, which stands in the middle of the room and the back of the room with two big windows in the back wall of the town hall, behind the chair.

The village head tells "the last person, who comes in to close the door behind them", the village head then tells "them all to sit", after everybody sat down. The village head starts telling the problem which is staring them right in their eyes. She begins with "we are at war!, the village two days from here on horseback is gone and we have now a choice to make, either we... leave for the noble house of Sia... and then she pauses a bit or we stay... and get killed".
