VALORIA WILDEROSE
A few days have passed since the arrival of the priestesses and the preparations fully commenced. Everyone has been busy helping out Calliope set it up one way or another.
And now the courtyard is fully set with decorations and various vibrant flowers, an altar has already been erected and now the priestesses consecrate it with incense and oils, creating a sacred environment for the goddess to be present.
I peek through the tall hedge bushes watching them put the final touches for tomorrow night together, peeking specifically at Lyra placing large bowls of fruits and nuts as offerings on the table.
Discussing with her mentor Celestina.
For the past few days I've taken on more duties than most for the sole purpose of observing and lying in wait for her to make one wrong move.
She may have explicitly described her lack of interest in me or anything else besides the honor of carrying out the rituals but I'm not completely sold.
