Gradually, a bright half-moon began to appear and enlighten the dark sky as the evening was progressing.
Babida the lumberjack finished his meditation, grabbed his steel ax and walked away from his former military tent. He began to seek out the young maiden Suzie and her uncle, and spotted them on the esplanade of the administrative headquarters beside the Okunde's garden.
The rescue operations had ceased and the woodman's companions were about to dine along with the rest of the lifesavers after many hours of restless work.
Generous donors of the village brought some food to the troops and the benevolent civilians among which the young maiden Suzie and Uncle Bibi, so they could get back a bit of the huge deal of the energy that they had spent on healing the injured, removing the corpses of the deceased littering the ground, and tidying up the lawn of the Okunde's garden.
