Chapter 34 Lucia's Gaining More Grounds

The girls assembled at the main hall, each person was busy with her own thought and fear.
"I know we all are afraid and weary but I want us all to remember that we have to survive and the look on our faces shows our tired we are, but despite all that is happening, we must pull our strength together and strive to live on." Lucia words did nothing to pull he girls out of their misery or boost their confidence.
Audrey who was watching Lucia as she talks noticed that Lucia was deliberating avoiding her gaze, this was quiet unusual.
