The Perplexing Situation
"Alright, let's get moving. We don't have any time to waste," Velma told Daphne, who was still shaking her fist in the air. The duo left quickly, retracing their steps back to the mansion.
Once they arrived, they were greeted by a flurry of excited chatter, laughter, and the tinkling of silverware on plates. The earlier tension in the dining room had completely evaporated, replaced by a light-hearted and jovial atmosphere. Galio, the host of the event, wasn't present but Nemoria and Tallia were the main center of attention.
"Uh-oh. I think we just walked into the final rehearsal of the First Goddess Circle, Velma," Daphne whispered, falling behind Velma as they slowly moved through the crowd. Tallia had clearly taken charge, her soft-spoken voice floating over the noise in the room, drawing everyone's attention to her.
