There are many realms throughout this mighty space, and each realm has its own law and order, likewise its own gods and other races, some co-exist in harmony whereas others fight over territories and for social hierarchy, racial discrimination is common like flies in some realms. Every realm has its own heaven (the governing authority) and royal houses, but the divine army is a part of the Supreme Heaven which is common and holds full power over the other realms.
Myrta Forest, Vlera Realm.
After saving Rowan's life, Lena decides to stay at his house temporarily to replenish her strength and magic force for a while before going to the village. Lena's mind is troubled with the thought that she unfortunately landed in the Vlera realm, the very own realm where they were escorting the 6th prince for diplomatic affairs, the problem here is that the Heavenly Inquisition would probably start their investigation from here to find the cause of death of the 6th prince and also to execute the entire fleet escorting the prince.
While on the way towards his house, Rowan asked her about how she got here and her whereabouts, but Lena was cautious and lied about the entire story and said that she is an was a hired guard who was in a mission to escort a wealthy merchant along with his goods to Siera realm but was attacked in the midway during that process by the galaxy pirates and accidently got into a space rift which teleported her to this realm.
She feels that he didn't believe about what she said but he also didn't press on that matter hence it doesn't concern her as a thing to take action. She to in return asked him about why his house is situated outside the village and that too nearly 5km away.
He smiled and began to explain the long story in a short version, apparently his father was the previous village chief of the Ryla village, and they are the remaining few who worshiped the previous goddess of light who had the authority over the Vlera realm but after the Supreme Heaven captured the realm and formed the government. They destroyed the previous goddess of light's remains and statues, the people who were against the government were stripped of their rights for many things.
As the village chief his father opposed the new government which was under the rule of the heaven and believed that destroying the statue meant destroying their traces and culture of this realm. But soon it didn't last long, and their family was banished out of their own village and his father's position was also stripped away from him because of the so-called friends and the people he wanted to protect with his life. Rowan's family is not allowed inside the village, so Rowan has to go to the nearby village to sell the things he got in the wild to make a living.
Hearing about his situation made Lena sad but also, she felt that his voice was filled with guilt and regret as like he was ashamed of himself. She felt awful to stay at their house for nothing and to disturb them. Noticing the discomfort on Lena's face Rowan assured her with a smile and said, "don't worry, you won't be a trouble to us. And it would be the total opposite, we would feel bad if you refused to stay at my house". Lena agreed with a smile to his kind invitation.
