For the people of the village, today is a good day.
Their leader, Van Fleet, brought back some news. After enduring numerous hardships, he finally found a way to leave this godforsaken place. It wouldn't take long before they could go home.
Upon hearing this news, everyone instinctively stopped what they were doing. They couldn't believe it wasn't an April Fool's joke. For those who had accidentally ended up here earlier, they had long lost hope of returning.
It was a day worth celebrating.
Van Fleet called on everyone to hold a grand celebration. They no longer needed to be frugal and could bring out all the food to enjoy their last lunch at this dreaded place to their heart's content.
This was what Ave and Valerie saw when they returned to the village. The people were immersed in the joy of the celebration, each holding a bowl of stew with exotic flavors, passionately discussing their plans for when they returned home.
