Evaya stood with her arms loosely folded, watching the high priestess from across the quiet chamber.
The lingering scent of incense still hung in the air, curling upward toward the painted ceiling, yet it did little to disguise the undercurrent of unease between them.
"Are you certain that it was wise to send Kana back with those two?"
Evaya began, her voice low and measured.
High Priestess Jenna glanced up from the papers she was arranging, her serene expression unshaken.
"Why wouldn't it be?"
Evaya stepped closer, her boots clicking softly against the polished stone.
"You know as well as I do that she's already involved with them. If she ever wanted to back down, High Priest Rudy won't allow it. And he's not going to believe she has nothing to do with them anymore."
Jenna gave a small, almost amused smile, but there was no warmth in it.
"You're not wrong. Still… we didn't have much of a choice. Keeping her here would have caused more trouble than sending her away."
