Tessa reached the top of the temple. It was an open temple with ten pillars forming a circle around it. She hurried inside the temple and she saw all the elders and elite members were all kneeling on the floor.
She immediately took a quick glance around and she sighted her father in the middle of the temple. He was kneeling on the floor, same as the elders and elite members.
'Thank goodness.'
Tessa sounded in her mind as she slowly approached the scene. Her earlier movement caused a little bit of disturbance so everyone's eyes were on her.
Sir Mateo's eyes went backwards at that moment and saw the person that caused the noise was Tessa.
He wanted to sound normal, but his voice was dry.
"Quickly, Tessa. you have to kneel down."
Tessa fastened her movements to her father, but her eyes were on the round shaped basket that was in the middle of the temple with several candles surrounding it.
