Rochemnix walked up to a wooden board as tall as a person. The board was carved with numerous words, but unfortunately, he couldn't read a single one. Curious, he asked, "What is this?"
"This is where the laws and regulations of our tribe are carved, so that tribesmen can refer to them anytime, memorize them, and avoid punishment for breaking them."
"What if someone doesn't know how to read?"
"We'll have someone here in the future to explain them to interested tribesmen."
"Oh." Rochemnix reached out and touched the carvings on the board, feeling an even stronger desire to learn how to read.
The two walked one behind the other toward the eastern village gate.
After walking a few steps, Rochemnix suddenly stopped, pointing toward the north and asked, "What are they doing?"
It wasn't surprising for Rochemnix to be curious because he had been here before and knew the area by the Kupa River. Now, however, the place was filled with people more densely than ever before.
