Solution
While returning from Arenla’s cremation, Onula entered the work shed out of curiosity because its door was slightly open. She suddenly stopped when she saw two neat rows of newly made pots standing side by side. Onula remained silent because she was amazed that she could not find any difference between them.
The perfectly shaped pots made by Sentila revealed her natural and extraordinary talent. Onula realised that Sentila had mastered the craft without receiving formal training. The “new phenomenon” refers to the rare development of true skill through instinct, careful observation, and passion. Onula’s silence expressed her deep respect and understanding, as she recognised that Sentila had truly become a skilled pot maker.
