Boom!
Before Mira and Vina Kana stood the Divine Statue, which suddenly emitted a thunderous boom. A colossal female Divine Statue took one step after another, approaching them. On its ravaged face, half a lip curled up into a faint smile.
The dense moisture in the air made the scene before them even more chillingly somber.
The stone statues, typically worshipped daily by their respective Believers, stirred to life. It was like they followed the command of some ritual formation, executing the intruders who had breached this sacred place.
The female Divine Statue, striding forward like a Valkyrie, lifted one hand like a Giant Shield. The mountain-high arm smashed down, and in an instant, the expansive lake surged like towering waves, rushing towards Mira and Vina Kana.
"Isaya."
Mira heard Vina Kana chanting in the Ancient Language.
Could it be... fate?
