Chapter 128: Blessed by the Moon Goddess

Tara Harivamsa clasped her hands in front of her chest, bowed her head respectfully to the priestess, and said, "Lady Rashmika, sorry to bother you. This is Miss Eleanor Elizabeth Raynor, the Young Miss of the Ambassador Clan. The Reverend One is expecting her. I was asked to bring her to you."

"Okay. Thank you, Apprentice Tara Harivamsa. You may leave now," Rashmika replied with a small nod.

As Tara turned to exit the room, Rashmika called out, "Wait."

She then turned her attention to Eleanor and said, "Miss Raynor, may I ask that your companions wait outside for a moment? Tara will accompany them while you have your meeting."

Although slightly surprised, Eleanor didn’t let it show on her face. With a calm tone, she said, "Of course. You two, please wait with Miss Tara for the time being."

From Eleanor’s shadow, two figures silently emerged... Sebastian and Isadora. She hadn’t brought Maya with her; Maya had been left behind to attend to other matters. Both members of Eleanor’s shadow team bowed respectfully before stepping toward Tara, who was visibly shocked. She had accompanied Eleanor the entire time yet hadn’t sensed either of them.

Rashmika turned to Tara and said gently, "You may wait outside now. Miss Raynor will join you shortly."

The three of them exited and once the room was quiet, Rashmika turned to Eleanor with a composed expression. "Miss Raynor, please remain steady. I’m going to open a dimensional door."

"All right," Eleanor replied, intrigued. This was the first time she would witness dimensional magic in action.

Rashmika took out a small, lustrous magic stone. Holding it like a quill, she began to draw intricate circular runes in the air while chanting a soft incantation under her breath. The air shimmered, and one by one, six exquisite golden runes formed, glowing with such brilliance that the entire room lit up like high noon.

With precise movements, Rashmika reached out and pulled a rune to the center as though it were tangible, then another, stacking it over the previous. She repeated the process until all six runes had merged into a single radiant point. The golden light began to shift, softening into a soothing silver glow. Then, where the runes had floated, a doorway appeared... tall and graceful, revealing a vision of a garden bursting with life beyond its threshold.

"Miss Raynor," Rashmika said with a small bow, "please enter. The Reverend One is waiting for you."

"Thank you," Eleanor said, stepping forward without hesitation.

As Eleanor crossed the threshold into another dimension, her senses were immediately embraced by the intertwine perfume of flowers. The air shimmered with scents... sweet jasmine, earthy marigold, and the rich fragrance of roses and hibiscus mingled together like nature’s own incense. Bougainvillea vines fluttered on a gentle breeze, their papery magenta bracts dancing like butterflies.
