Evaya cleared her throat sharply, snapping the moment back to something more grounded.
"That's enough. Let's focus on why we're actually here."
She said, stepping forward and straightening her robes.
Kana blinked, still a little rattled, but nodded as Evaya gestured toward a cushion set near a small table.
"Sit. I'll bring tea."
Kana lowered herself to the floor, her hands resting in her lap. She watched as Evaya moved with practiced precision, pouring warm, fragrant tea into delicate cups and placing a tray of neatly arranged snacks between them.
The scent was soothing—floral with a hint of citrus—and it helped ground Kana's nerves.
High Priestess Jenna took a seat across from Kana, looking far too relaxed for someone who'd just been scolded.
Her expression shifted slightly—just enough to let Kana know that what came next would be important.
Once the tea was served, Evaya returned to her spot beside the priestess and looked directly at Kana.
