Rain knelt in front of a statue of the veiled goddess in the holy church of Starbloom.
Around her, several nuns knelt as well and even Executioners. They all chanted as an old woman knelt in front of them.
That was the current Saintess and their chants filled the air as holy energy practically flooded the whole church, rejuvenating the bodies of everyone present in the place.
Rain focused on the prayer, letting the familiar words flow from her lips without conscious thought.
She had done this every day for two months now… Every single day since Azel had vanished into the Underworld without so much as a goodbye.
Her voice joined the chorus of devotion, rising and falling with the rhythm that only believers of the goddess could muster.
The holy energy wrapped around her like a warm embrace, soothing aches she hadn't known were there. It was always like this during their prayers. The goddess's blessing made itself known in tangible ways.
