Kana's tense shoulders finally relaxed a little when she heard High Priestess Jenna's calm assurance.
For the first time since waking up on that bench, she felt like someone might actually be able to explain what was happening to her.
Taking a quiet breath, she nodded and asked softly.
"What… what do I need to do to make things easier for you?"
Jenna smiled gently, her voice warm but steady.
"You don't need to do much, Kana. Just place your hand on mine and allow me to guide the flow. I'll handle the rest."
Kana hesitated for a brief second, glancing at Lysera and Irielle.
Both were watching her closely — Lysera's jaw tight, Irielle's gaze sharp — but neither stopped her. With a deep inhale, Kana reached out and placed her hand over Jenna's.
The moment their skin touched, Kana felt it. A strange, flowing current — like warm liquid sunlight — spiraled around her, weaving into her body, her thoughts, her soul.
