souls have been lost and the panic grows
[That... that was hell, actually. Wendy didn't like that at all. After the trial she... has to head to the kitchen and hopefully not find clay shit everywhere. She needs to do something to keep things under control. To keep things going.
She's not a great cook but she knows the basics. Meat. Bread. Cheese. Something warm for the belly to drink. She's nervous when she works but she's relentless. There's no asking for help from her as she makes a spread for everyone. Then... she's moving all of it not to the eatery but the bonfire.
Making makeshift tables around it and placing trays of food and drink. Even setting up a chair for Alex a good distance away from the fire but close enough that he can be part of things if he wants to.
Wendy, with her careful writing, writes up some notes and hands them out to everyone if she can find them or if not under their door.
Food at the bonfire and the area around it. Attendance not mandatory but it's probably better for all of us if we stick together. Bring more food and drink if you want.

That's what all the ceremonies are for: to try to bring some relief.

[It's not that she doesn't have regrets, or doesn't still mourn some people that have long since passed. But that point in her chest hollowed out and scarred over long ago, so there's nothing to poke at that would hurt.]
I wouldn't say this is for my own grief. They deserve to be honored, that's all.

Erm...right. I just recalled your profile says you're over a thousand years old. I guess by now you know this kind of situation back and forth far better than I will.
[Perhaps it was a bit presumptuous to say anything, she wonders...]
