The massive doors groaned open, spilling out a flood of soft, star-like light. A cool, tingling breeze brushed against Emilia's skin. From the outside, nothing of the interior could be seen, as though a great barrier of mystery blocked it from view.
But the moment she stepped inside—
"WOAAAAAAH!!" Emilia's jaw dropped, her neck craned as she tried to take in the breathtaking sight of the Sanctuary of Ten Thousand Stars. Even though it had been years since her last visit, the sight before her struck her with the same awe as the first time.
Meanwhile, Mimi, perched on her shoulder, went utterly still. Her fluffy tail froze mid-sway, her round eyes sparkling wide. For once, the little cat had no words, only a tiny open-mouthed stare of wonder.
So this is the Sanctuary of Ten Thousand Stars!
Amazing!
