Around her, the familiar sounds of the nascent community hummed: the rhythmic thud of Lena's pestle against mortar, the murmur of voices as Jax directed a few of the younger members on reinforcing a section of the palisade, the distant bleating of the goats they'd managed to acquire. It was a symphony of survival, a constant, low-level hum of effort against the encroaching silence. Yet, beneath the surface of this diligent activity, Elara's mind, ever the tireless engine, churned. She saw the effort, yes, but she also saw the inefficiency.
