Aria's POV
The temple gardens shimmer beneath the full moon's embrace. Nocturnal blossoms unfurl their petals only under lunar light, their ethereal glow dancing in the gentle wind. The heavy perfume of night jasmine saturates the air, making each breath feel intoxicating. I know I shouldn't be wandering these sacred grounds. The Daughters of the Moon are strictly forbidden from venturing beyond the temple walls unaccompanied, particularly during the darkest hours. Yet tonight, an inexplicable force tears through my chest, dragging me from the safety of my chambers into the moonlit wilderness. Here I stand, defenseless and alone, without even a single guardian knight by my side.
