[Terra opens her eyes as her thoughts slip away and into silence. She isn't expecting to see so many people in the temple. Bright glimmering eyes look over towards the woman.]

It's different.

[She replies simply.]

But comfortable.

[At least the temple is which is why she's spending a great deal of time hidden within it's walls.]

Mm. There isn't anywhere quite like this on the other continents, is there?

[…well. K'pandolu's not as comfortable, but if Terra has somewhere like that for her, that's good, surely. She tilts her head a little, tail flicking lightly, and tries to phrase her next words delicately.]

Does it… seem like something you've known?

[Terra shakes her head.]

No. I think that's why it feels comfortable.

[She can't really explain it but it's like she doesn't feel alone.]

Something different…

[if that's how it is, she doesn't really get it. But she's not sure how to ask for clarification, and that answer seems to indicate Terra doesn't really recognise any of these Eidolons, either.]

Do you mind if I stay for a time? Perhaps I can feel that, too.

[she's not so sure she will, but- for a little while, she can try.]

[Terra nods slightly and then looks back up towards the painted glass. She doesn't know these summons but it's a place she feels like she belongs.

Of course others can enjoy it as well.]

Try and pray.

[It's just a suggestion, one that the other doesn't have to take.]

[It's meant well, in all likelihood, but for a few moments K'pandolu freezes, only the tip of her tail flicking. Even if they are guardians, the thought of primals still rises to her mind.]

… Perhaps. [she looks away, trying to hide her expression. It won't call anything, this star is not the same and yet-

She bites the inside of her lip, tail flicking.] I won't be far.

[and indeed, she doesn't go far- just to the closest wall, and she leans back against it, tail curled around her. She takes a deep breath, and lets it out, focusing on that to try to settle herself.]

[Terra nods her head slightly, a small acknowledgement that she had heard the others words. She then closed her eyes and listened. Her thoughts fluttered and filtered through her mind like water moving downward until it’s able to reach the vast ocean.

One palm reaches out and lightly rests on the pillar in front of her while the other moves over her heart. She can hear it, however faint, a soft hum in her soul. It’s not a voice but a feeling as if the gods might give her wings and freedoms beyond her dreams. Terra opens herself up to that feeling and the familiar sense of comfort returns.

Her shoulders relax and standing there against the pillar she looks like she’s at piece.]

[It's a peace K'pandolu only feels able to aspire to right now, her heart as tumultuous as a river pouring over rapids.

She cracks one eye open to watch as she tries to keep her breathing regulated, and a cool feeling runs down her spine- a mix of something like sorrow and shame, perhaps. Is it right, that she should remain so concerned…?

Quietly:] Hydaelyn… what do I do?

[She doesn't expect an answer- Hydaelyn had been silent since her confrontation with Lahabrea, and Crystallis seems so remote. She goes quiet again, listening, eyes dropped. She'll not disturb Terra from here- but if something else approaches, she'll be ready.]
