Chapter 142: Respite

During the period of respite that Ophelia granted herself, she withdrew from her usual responsibilities and allowed the weight of her burdens to lift, if only temporarily. She trusted Viserra's counsel and the assurance that others would handle the intricacies of her problems in her absence. It was a conscious decision to prioritize her mental well-being, seeking solace and reprieve from the turmoil that had engulfed her life.

Zephyros, with his ability to soothe conflicting emotions, played a crucial role in this interlude. Ophelia leaned on his support, taking moments to rest and recuperate. Sleep became a refuge, and the medicinal influence of Zephyros helped quell the tumultuous thoughts that threatened to overwhelm her.
