The Priestess drummed her fingers, silently watching the gathered Watchers who were looking at her intently. The course of her actions had led to this.

The Priestess smiled innocently. She took her time before opening her mouth to speak, her eyes focusing on Lemei, the most revered of all the Watchers.
"You said," she started. "I could take my time banishing the anguish in my soul," her voice rang loud and clear around the chamber.
"For me to become one of you, I must get over this foul taste I have in my mouth against those who wronged me. You gave me power, my agency, to do what need be. And now you want me to explain what those children are doing inside my little game?"
The priestess clicked her tongue.
"It's just a game."
Lemei acknowledged her explanation. She looked at the others gathered around her and calmly looked at the Priestess in the eye.
