Chapter 164: Chapter 164

The next day, Kimberly sat cross-legged in the center of the temple, surrounded by the elders.

Their robes whispered against the stone floor as they settled into their places.

The air was thick with the scent of burning herbs, and the faint hum of distant chants resonated through the chamber.

The leader of the elders, a man with piercing silver eyes, studied Kimberly with a knowing gaze. His voice was calm but firm when he finally spoke.

"Kimberly, your training is progressing faster than expected, and we are pleased with your growth.

However, before we continue today’s lessons, we need to hear from you.

What have you learned? What have you experienced so far?"

Kimberly took a deep breath, gathering her thoughts. She had been through so much in such a short time.

The weight of responsibility pressed down on her, but she knew she couldn’t falter.

"First, I want to thank you all for accepting me as one of your own," she began, her voice steady but filled with sincerity.

"I was always told that I would find answers someday, and since coming here, I’ve learned more than I ever imagined.

Your wisdom has guided me, but I’ve also discovered things on my own."

One of the elders, an older woman with deep wrinkles and kind but stern eyes, leaned forward.

"Have you been having visions or dreams lately?"

Kimberly hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Yes... I had one yesterday, and it felt so real. I could feel the power of it. Something big and dangerous is coming."

A hush fell over the room. The elders exchanged glances, their expressions unreadable.

Then, the eldest among them, a man whose presence commanded both fear and respect, spoke.

"Will you allow us to see your vision, child?"

Kimberly blinked in surprise. "You can do that?"

The elder nodded. "Yes. We have our ways. Normally, we can look into the dreams and visions of others without their consent.

But someone as powerful as you... we cannot. You must grant us permission."

Kimberly thought for a moment. If they could see what she had seen, maybe they could explain what it meant. She took a deep breath and nodded.

"I give you permission to look into my dreams and visions."

The leader of the elders produced a small, transparent bowl filled with pure water.
