A Break Before The Last

Watching the faces of the Council it was clear, there would likely be people here that would always be opposed to Islana being The Prophetess, if that is what happened at the end of everything.

The redhead was just glad anger didn't appear on all the faces. Then there was the man in the center - the Ascendant. The young woman had no idea what to make of him. She nodded to his words and then watched as he, the others, and the stone left.

Once the others were gone, Islana moved her legs out from underneath her, stretching them out front. Slowly, the woman ingested the bread and water.

Five days? If the man hadn't told her, Islana would have had no idea how long the dream-like state had lasted.

Once done with consuming the water and bread, the young woman slowly attempted standing. Quite shaky, sore legs made it a difficult task but was eventually successful.

As the redhead made the move to walking her mind went to the next task - Communion with The Immortal Seer. The last trial in what was beginning to seem like an endless amount of them. One more and the will of the Twins, for Islana, would be set in stone.
