A different sort of silence ensued after the momentous ritual finally came to an end.
In the field where a giant hexagon had been built, thousands of people knelt on the ground with awe.
Each of the people invited to take part in the ceremony all gazed at the statue of the Superior Mother as if it had descended from the heavens!
Ves couldn't blame them. The theatrical show he conducted along with the unexpected complications like all of the lightning bolts raining down on the statue had caused everyone to lose their cool.
The strong, maternal glow emanating from the statue only reinforced the notion of a holy descent!
Thousands of local Sentinel men who filled up the zone corresponding to the phase of life were all in awe at the explosive series of events.
