Family gathering II

Stepping through the doors, Sophia took a few paces before she looked down at the room from her elevated platform. Her children who were talking amongst themselves with excitement suddenly became mute at her presence.

"Greetings, my children" Sophia's voiced rang out through the hall enthralling all those who heard her voice.

"Greetings, Mother." In unison, the whole room spoke those words as though it was a force of nature.

"Our Family is but one part of the collective."

"And we await the day we can once again become whole."

I got goosebumps all over me at their chanting and whispered to myself. "Wow so they are a 'cult' cult." "What do you mean Apollo-mate?" Orchid asked in confusion, but I just waved my arms to tell her to forget it.
