Four Weeks Later.

The saw mill was busy bustling with workers, with many orders being fulfilled. Ronnie looked down from the balcony outside the office. He stood there with a plaster over his head with a fading scar, following his ordeal his improvement was significant.

Ben stood laughing with some of the Bulgarian workers, Mark Ross was in the background helping move some of the huge trunks of trees, through the saw turning them into individual timbers.

Ben walked over to the door and smiled to see Lydia standing at the door waiting for him. She was wearing a long white silk skirt, with lilac coloured blossom design over it. She stood holding her bag in front of her, waiting for Ben to approach her.

"You know I'm not quite ready for another adventure yet."

"So, you know you're here, it's a bit awkward, I mean you can't just keep coming and going when you want you know, we have villagers we have to think about."

"I have been thinking about that too."

"You have? Well I would love to hear what you have to say?"

"Well, I came back because I quit my job at the paper, I didn't think investigation was really cut out for me, and anyway your village is missing something."

"Really, hmmm and what is that?"

"A magazine."

"Indeed."

"I could tell you but it's a secret." She laughed
