It is, indeed, a long climb. Cora and I are panting by the time we get to the top, and even though
Sinclair took Rafe from me halfway through the hike I have to take a moment to catch my break
when we pull ourselves up to the final level.
Roger has the indecency to look a little smug about the fact that he barely looks winded and Cora
gives him a little shove on the shoulder as she works to take a few deep breaths and wipe the
sweat from her brow.
Even as I work to bring my heartrate back down, I absolutely marvel at the sight before me.
The Goddess’ temple, like the one in the city, is built completely with white marble. But unlike
the one in the city, this one looks….ancient. Vines grow in ropes all over it, looking almost as if the
structure is part of the forest itself, having grown up organically from it. The temple is tall and
wide, the pillars in front drawing my eyes upward to the slanted roof which curls into a dome. At
the very peak of the dome is a golden crescent moon, reaching up towards the sky, glinting in the
bright sunlight.
“Wow,” Cora says, standing straight next to me and likewise marveling at the temple. “Mom has
some….impressive property.”
“I know, right?” I mutter back, crossing my arms and shaking my head. If someone had told me,
when I was a little girl sleeping in my creaky little orphan bed, that my mom lived here…
Well. I probably would have believed them.
But I was a very imaginative child.
“Um,” Roger says, looking anxiously at Cora. “Shall we?”
I smile at him, seeing that he’s eager to move on but also that he wants to give her room to process this experience. It’s more intense for her than it is for him, and I think that it’s very sweet that he realizes this. Roger really has come leaps and bounds as a person from when I first met

The architecture is still bright and wide, but you can tell that women live here and treat it as a home.
