Harkesh froze in some shock.
The Comet God? Hadn't he just been conveying the revelation from the Moon Deity about the inauspicious comet that streaked across the sky just this evening? So, it was indeed true, and the threat was acted and had established a fellowship already?
"Where?" He left the podium in a rush, moving instantly towards the back of the church where Tata was, his white robe billowing behind him.
Perhaps, since Harkesh inherited the mantle of the Head Priest in the Church of the Moon, this was the first and only time he would interact with anyone from the poor caste grounds.
"Where is he?" Harkesh asked again when he was in front of Tata.
Tata blanked out, put off by the sweet smelling of the oil that the Priest had dabbed on himself. It made her feel a bit nauseous.
Harkesh frowned. Why was this old hag suddenly swaying from side to side as if she was about to faint?
He turned to the congregation.
