It was the first 958f99c762 thought that came to c59c9ac5c2 her, but she hesitated fc6c7d7c25 to go down to be843f43df the village.

If she went 65a4e1db1c to the village, d36ce7e9b7 she might run 2dc9b2c117 into Emily or fe12ec6d90 other villagers, and f61afc23ac they would undoubtedly 7de98d11bd bombard her with 0d1e107023 questions.fba8a19a1fe3edd8
