Without a single one of the countermeasures, it would've been a very difficult, uphill battle

“I a Clan! Will you listen toout with authority

“Yes!” Everyone responded alle source, not from a collection of individual voices

“This is the end of the hunt today But, as we've been through tonight, there will beon this hunt Therefore, everyone here should reilant This is the end of today's hunt Froroup I'll tell you what you need to do here through your chosen leaders First of all, we must tend to the injured quickly…”

The square was cleared up to soanization phase, such as organizing the spoils and tending to the wounded

The peoples' expressions were bright as they constantly recalled the successful hunt They could now feast late into the night with the ga wild hunters, alcohol and h hout the day, they all understood that any hunt brought losses, so they had their oay of coping with death
