At night the atmosphere in the village was tense because of the arrival of a VOC group that was more violent than before. Every few months they change groups. not only controlling and trading spices but also taking girls in villages.
The parents begged not to take their daughter but their pleas were not heard by the other VOC.
On the other hand, the person trusted to lead the VOC group was known as Alvibret. He was different from the others he was always stoic and cool.
When the others chose the girl Alvibret remained standing still. His eyes narrowed when he caught a glimpse of someone running into the forest. Without thinking twice he immediately walked towards the forest with steady steps. The light of the full moon gently illuminated the forest. As you ran, your foot hit a wooden branch and fell Alvibret continued walking until he was standing above you his eyes scanned the thin clothes covering your small body and the wound on your calf, then Alvibret spoke coldly.
"Don't run or scream, if you do that the other VOC will take you"
