"Wow... It's peaceful here," Amon remarked, gazing at the statue of the Goddess of Light.
Arnold's lips twitched. "We're not here to find peace," he whispered.
"I know."
Amon turned around and began observing his surroundings, hoping to notice something useful.
Just then, Atlas entered the hall alongside two other men.
The first was in his sixties, with only a few strands of white hair remaining on his mostly bald head. He wore a simple white robe and a cross-shaped necklace around his neck.
He was none other than Mason, the priest of the temple.
For more than thirty years, Mason had overseen both the temple and the village of Leonera, making him one of the most influential figures in the area.
The second man also wore a white robe, though his appearance and attire were more modest than those of the deacon. Unlike Atlas, his primary responsibility was maintaining the temple's cleanliness.
