Hvisland: A VR Colony Sim Game

My colonists began to devour the brown roast pork that Seb made. The meat was more tender and miraculously tasted quite savory even without the seasoning at all.

"This is definitely not meat from a wild boar." Manu nodded with his mouth full. "Maybe this animal got out of its owner's cage. Is it okay for us to eat it?"

"You talk like that but eat like a madman." Leva answered while licking the bone that was clean of the flesh. "Don't worry, the evidence will be gone later. The remaining meat will be processed as jerky by Seb. And who's going to bother looking anyways?"

Kat stayed out of the conversation and kept eating.

Seb, who was also chewing, glanced at Eric, who just sat and didn't touch his food at all.

"You haven't eaten in days, Eric." Seb sighed. "At this rate, you're really going to get sick."

"Huh?" Eric looked at his father, then took his portion of meat and took a small bite. After that, he put it back on the plate.

Seb couldn't help but sigh again as his son chewed slowly.

"Hey, by the way, what about us next?" Leva spoke in a low voice.

Manu raises an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

Leva started to look around at the others. "Winter will be over soon. Do we still need to stay here? The main reason we stay here is because winter will make our journey home difficult, right?"

The atmosphere became quiet. Everyone stopped eating. It took a while before Manu finally answered. "Well, there are a lot of bad memories here."

"I agree that we go back to our previous home." Finally, Kat joined the conversation.

Manu chuckled bitterly. "And in the first place, we have no right to be here. We didn't build all this. I do feel comfortable with the forging tools here, but I can build them where we are, and I can bring the necessary things from here ...." Manu stopped his speech and looked at Eric. "That's if you don't mind me bringing your friend's stuff, Eric."

Eric shrugged. "I don't mind. It's better than leaving those things alone. However, isn't it troublesome to carry heavy things like anvils and so on?"

"Ah, that's right, huh." Manu sighed.

"Well, before leaving, we can wait for the merchant who sells horses or other transport animals, though I think the chances of that happening are very slim." Eric continued his speech.

Manu nodded. "And so I can sell the weapons I've made."

"There's nothing wrong with waiting." Seb flashed his trademark smile. "Also, I think it would be best if we waited for the snow to completely clear before setting off."

"I've been dying to go back to our old home, even if it's not as good as it is here." Leva complained with an annoyed face. "But what you say makes sense, Seb. We'll have to wait. The journey in the snow was tough."

Then, they fell silent again. I know they won't decide before I give orders.

Wait.

Just now, they made a plan without me giving an order to discuss first?

My mind went back to what H said a moment ago.

"Don't leave. Stay here." I ordered them all.

"So, it's been decided, right?" Leva said again while scratching her hair. "Shall we return to our former home?"

My colonists looked at each other, then nodded in turn. This is very strange. I don't see a cause that could make them go against my orders collectively like this.

Could this be the consequence that H meant? My colonists can't permanently move from their original homes? I didn't expect it at all. I thought the consequences would be more significant than this.

Or have I not seen the great repercussions of this consequence?

An uneasy feeling began to overwhelm me. What do you want, H?

"Okay!" Leva got up and put her hands on her hips. Her mouth formed a wide smile. "We are going back to our beloved home! Well, there's nothing special about that house, anyway... Come to think of it. There were terrible memories there too... Whatever! What is clear is that the place we built with great struggle. I walked for days to collect the damn clays!"

***

Kat came out of the house carrying a burning torch, standing in the yard looking up at the star-studded sky.

Not long after, Seb came out too and approached the girl.

"Can't sleep, Kat?" Seb said while giving his usual smile, joining in on the stars gazing. "I can't sleep either.... Ah, the stars. In our original world, especially in big cities, we wouldn't be able to see them because the existing buildings gave off too much light."

Since it was Kat, the conversation stopped there.

However, when Kat left the house like this, I think maybe she had something on her mind. As for Seb, I purposely ordered him to follow this girl. He happened to be awake.

"Just tell him what's on your mind, Kat." I whispered to the amber-eyed girl's ear.

Kat closed her eyes, took a deep breath. "That conversation about home made me realize one thing."

"What's that?"

"I had no idea that what I could call home would actually be in a place millions of light years from Earth." The girl opened her eyes again.

Seb chuckled softly. "Well, that's an interesting opinion."

"Can this home still exist?"

"Of course, Kat." Seb looked at the girl. "After all, we're family. We've been through a lot of obstacles, haven't we?"

"Family...." Kat was at a loss for words.

"That's right. What else?"

It took a few seconds for Kat to answer. "I see."

After that, the amber-eyed girl walked into the house without speaking, leaving Seb alone.

Seb chuckled again as Kat closed the door. "And now I can't see anything. It's so dark here."

The blonde-haired man began to walk back to the house cautiously.

Why didn't you come with Kat into the house, Mr.. Buttman? Should I order you to do that simple thing? What the hell.
