Lior was very generous this time, letting me leave with twelve mythical artifacts in total, including the Aurelia Wings. They aren't all for me, though. I selected ones most suitable for Sophia, Ariella, and Bella as well. The upcoming Trial of the Goddess of the Moon would be dangerous, and I wanted to ensure we were all prepared for any possible scenario. These artifacts would give us the advantage we needed to face whatever might come our way.
As I walk through the Harrow Estate garden, the moon hangs high in the sky, casting a soft, silvery glow over everything. The night air carries the sharp bite of early winter, the cold creeping into the earth and making it firm beneath my boots. With every exhale, I see the mist of my breath floating in the air.
Yup, winter has officially begun. In just a few more days, the first snow of the season will blanket the land.
