The teardrops from the statue continued like a waterfall. The concerns of the onlookers were understandable; maybe I should have followed Leticia's orders.
There wasn't anything to think about as the high priest went down and headed towards the pool.
He reached out his hand, seemingly helping me get out.
"There seems to be a connection," he whispered as I took his hand.
He called the other priests and told them to take the people outside and continue the festival as if nothing had happened.
"The goddess favors us!" he shouted, and it seemed to have reassured some of the people, but I know deep inside them they are worried.
"Will you have a cup of tea with me?" he asked. Now I know for certain that I've been caught.
He gave me time to change, and the location was at the garden where I previously got knocked out. There was also another person with us; she's been caught as well.
"Saintess, it's an honor."
