Bridging Worlds: Book 1 Celestoria's Time
Fateful Rainfall

Eowyn and Rosche rode for hours, the city gates of Ignistfell still looming on the horizon. The sun, which had accompanied them on their journey, abruptly surrendered to heavy clouds, and a relentless downpour began. Unperturbed by the pouring rain, they guided their horse toward an abandoned structure on the outskirts, seeking shelter from the elements.

“Looks like the heavens have chosen to test our resolve,” Rosche remarked, her voice tinged with exhaustion.

Eowyn nodded, rainwater dripping from the ends of her cloak. “Agreed. Our horse needs a break, and the downpour shows no sign of relenting. Let’s take a rest here until it eases up.”

They led the horse into the abandoned building, the rhythmic drumming of rain on the roof providing a melancholic backdrop. The space was somber, with echoes of their footsteps resonating through the desolation. Inside, Rosche leaned against a worn wall, her cloak glistening with raindrops.

“This storm mirrors more than just the weather,” Rosche confessed, her gaze distant. “The weight of this newfound responsibility bears heavily on me.”

Eowyn sighed, understanding the toll it was taking on her companion. “The rain provides cover for our weariness, but it can’t wash away the challenges we face. Let’s take this moment to rest and gather our strength before sharing the truth with our friends.”

As they found a relatively dry spot, the abandoned shelter became a temporary sanctuary for introspection. Rosche’s weariness was palpable, and Eowyn respected the weight of her emotions. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“I can sense the burden on your shoulders, Rosche,” Eowyn said gently. “I may not have known you for an extended period, but even in our brief time together, I can see the strength within you. Besides, you have your brother as a pillar of support. Together, we’ll navigate through this storm, much like the challenges we’ve faced before.”

Rosche nodded, a mixture of gratitude and weariness in her eyes. “The knowledge we carry—the news, it troubles me, that might change everything.”

Eowyn placed a reassuring hand on Rosche’s shoulder. “We face it together. Our friends will understand, and we’ll find a way forward. The storm outside is temporary; our strength and camaraderie are enduring.”

As they waited for the rain to ease, the dimly lit shelter became a haven for quiet reflection. The drumming of rain on the roof persisted, providing a contemplative rhythm for the two women preparing for the challenges that lay ahead. In this moment of respite, Eowyn offered silent support to Rosche, knowing that the storm within her companion was more turbulent than the one outside.
