Gauss stood a step forward, his Magic Wand angled towards the front, his expression focused and calm, as if he were casting a Spell.
Ying stood to his side in the shadows, eyes sharp and watchful.
Aaliyah stood on Gauss's other side, holding a Wooden Staff with both hands and striking it against the ground, a bright smile on her face.
Serdur, behind the three of them, held his palm upwards, making a spell-casting gesture for healing.
"Lord Gauss, I hope you and your companions will like this gift." Bruno spoke after everyone had finished observing. "We originally wanted to make a statue, but time has been tight, so we first made a wooden carving to place temporarily in the village center."
"When you visit the village next, you should be able to see the statue of you and your companions."
"We don't have anything valuable to repay you, so we hope to place your statues in the village center, so future generations will remember who gave us this brand-new home."
