Once upon a time, there was a small town that had a memorial dedicated to the victims of a tragic hijacking. The townspeople held a ceremony to unveil a new sculpture that was designed to symbolize freedom. The statue stood tall amidst the debris of the tragedy and served as a reminder of the sacrifices made by those who lost their lives. From that day on, the townspeople visited the memorial regularly to pay their respects and to remember the price of freedom.
