Chapter 17: We Part To Meet Again
The following day, the Birch tribe took a break from hunting. All the clansmen gathered in the village square since the early hours of the morning and were chatting happily among themselves.
On this day, the Canyon tribe's delegates would be leaving for their village. Unlike when they came, their departure would take away one of the most beautiful women in the clan, Hespera. The adopted daughter of the clan's leader.
Right on time, Hespera, accompanied by her parents, slowly came to the square, alongside Oscar, Shesara, Wynter, and other top clansmen.
Hespera was still dressed up from the previous night, with plain white dress and a long feather on her head. She was indeed looking particularly beautiful.

No wonder it was generally believed that a woman's wedding day was the most beautiful time in her life, and Hespera proved the true meaning of these words with evidences.
Guyon and his party were already waiting in the square when Hespera and her people arrived. There was no sense of weight-bearing when they came, no nervousness or fear of the unknown.
At this moment in time, their mood was very magnanimous. In the past few days, the two tribes had gone from unfamiliar faces to familiar ones. The Canyon delegates had integrated with the people of the Birch tribe.
Most importantly, their two goals had also been achieved. So the departing group felt extremely relaxed and happy at this time.
Kiara put Hespera's hand on Guyon's palm, and warned. "Master Guyon, Hespera is your wife now, remember to treat her well."
"Chieftess, please be rest assured that I will never let Hespera suffer."
Oscar also stepped forward and said to Guyon. "Master Guyon, please take good care of her."
"Don't worry. This is a promise I've already made." Guyon returned the firm look, as if it was a manly agreement between two warlords.
Kai had already selected ten strong and capable young men from the clan to follow Hespera to live with the Canyon tribe. Kiara had also specially chosen a young and beautiful girl to serve Hespera as her personal maid, on a daily basis.
After everything was settled, the Canyon delegates and Hespera mounted their horses, and left.
"Sister, I will definitely come to see you soon." Oscar shouted loudly as he looked at the group of people leaving.
Hespera did not look back, but her clear tears flowed down her cheeks and drifted away with the wind.
"Okay, we can all go back now." Seeing Guyon and his party disappeared from sight, Kai waved at everyone, ending the parting scene.
