Time seemed to have run by fast, and it was time for the ceremony; since the temple worshipped the goddess of the moon, the majority of festivals took place at night.
A lot of pilgrims had climbed the mountains for the winter prayer. Although some went missing, the ones left were still a noticeable number. While Abrielle was resting in her room, she had no idea that rumours had already spread quickly about her miscarriage thanks to Sapphire.
Many deemed her cursed to have a miscarriage on the holy ground known for miracles, while others deemed it a miracle that Cedric's spawn died. Even the goddess knew the monster was not meant to have any more abomination all these Abrielle had no idea of.
The doors to the main temple were left open for worshippers, Abrielle being accompanied by Evelyn and Zoltana, made their way in, but the maids had to take a seat at the back due to their status while Abrielle moved to the front, where the royal family was seated.
