Parheila's pov
______________________________________

"I sorry for holding you back from doing something so important" Parheila said glancing at the trio who were preparing to leave "no need to apologize Parheila,and it's kinda our fault for not telling you earlier, right haru?" Ari looked at Haru who was looking at a puddle in the ground "RIGHT HARU?" Ari repeated louder  "huh- of course" haru said in an uninterested voice
Ari gave her brother a look of concern

Persephone adjusted her side bag on her shoulder "well that's everything, we'll be leaving now Parheila,thanks for letting us stay here for a while"
Parheila smiled at Persephone,unsure of what to say

"Bye Parheila!" Ari said squeezing Parheila into a hug
"Too tight, too tig-"
"Whoops, my bad" Ari let go of Parheila
"Hey Haru,won't you say goodbye too?" Ari said poking him in the shoulder "bye Parheila" haru said waving his hand slightly
Parheila watched the trio fly away

Persephone's pov
______________________________________
They stood Infront of the doors of Teth's temple,so far it was the fanciest one they have seen

Haru summoned his candle and lifted it Infront of the darkstone that was molded into the door, for a few seconds the only sounds Persephone could hear were the twists and turning of gears, as the doors opened to reveal what was inside
"That was.. actually pretty cool" Ari said, her breath taken away. Haru smiled a little bit which was the first time Persephone had seen him since they met Parhelia, but this smile lacked the enthusiasm and slightly prideful energy that he usually had
"Yeah it is, we better head inside"
Haru said entering the temple

Despite the "cool" entrance the temple was just as abandoned as the rest, and just like every temple they have encountered the gate towards the next realm were wide open 
Persephone was about to go towards it when Haru grabbed her hand "were going to valley of triumph, which means that golden wasteland is next"
Persephone gulped down haru's words, he was right it didn't help that Persephone remembered that each step closer brought them to Eye of Eden, where the twisted corrupted version of the elders were waiting for them
"Hey, you don't have to worry about that. Well not yet anyway" Ari said placing a hand on Persephone's shoulder, Persephone smiled at her friends "yeah, your right"
The trio then headed towards Valley of Triumph
