Candles lit their path, and the base of the two statues.
One of the members laid out offerings along the base of one statue, while another member did the same to the second statue. The other three were chanting a ritual poem.
Sacrifice.
The ground shook only moments later. The two members seemed concerned now. Was this supposed to happen? The other three continued their chant, completely oblivious to their surroundings.
A light shined on them.
"Hey! Get away from those!"
A guard caught them.
The two members ran for their safety. One of the other three was hesitant to do the same. The final two stayed in place, fixated on the statues.
They were crumbling.
