The Solace temple stood tall and proud, its intricate architecture catching the warm rays of sunlight that filtered through the colorful stained glass windows. The sweet scent of incense filled the air, as the soothing sound of the ringing bell echoed throughout the capital.
As Beatrice settled into her seat in front of the stunning Solariel depiction, she felt a sense of calm wash over her. Her troubled heart began to ease, thanks to the gentle presence of the temple.
She closed her eyes, letting the peaceful atmosphere seep into her soul. However, her heart was hollow despite her prayers.
But it wasn't God that she came to the temple for - it was the priest. She couldn't get him out of her mind and found herself drawn to the temple just to be near him. Sometimes, she would share details of her nightmares with him just to have an excuse to talk to him.
