After hearing her words, all the people immediately bowed their heads to her. One of the old man, who looked to be the representative of the people present here came before Weiss and bowed his head even lower. Then he said in a shaking voice -
"Noble Mistress, we all are extremely grateful for your generosity. So this old man will shamelessly like to take advantage of that. Twelve of our most capable of men and women were taken somewhere just yesterday. Please, please save them. We all will be willing to become your horse or donkey in order to repay your grace."
As soon as this old man was done speaking, all the other villagers also bowed their heads even deeper. Weiss was able to sense what all of them were feeling and their feelings were quite complex. It was a mix of relief, gratitude, fear and worry.
