Within Aiden's Pocket Domain, the four women stood together, with no clear understanding of how to leave or what was happening outside.
Myrenne broke the quiet first. "I can't feel the presence of the goddess anymore," she said while pressing one hand against her temple. "There's no connection strong enough to reach any deity at all from this place."
Aeris remained flustered the entire time with her hands clasped together and her eyes darting around the empty expanse as if searching for an exit that didn't exist.
Arianna and Laela worried the most and both exchanged anxious glances before Arianna spoke. "We don't know what's happening out there," she said quietly. "I wish there was a way we could help."
Laela nodded in agreement. "Being trapped here while he fights feels wrong."
Their worry for their intended husband, was profound.
