"Its really been a year since the last time we saw Narinder"

"Good riddance, honestly"

Heket said to Fernilla as they walked down the empty hallways. Fernilla had Heket's arm as they chatted. Two maids followed both of them quietly. Since that fateful day, the women grew close to one another, in some circumstances, too close.

"It must be nice, you became the High Bishop, the second main bishop of the Clan of the Faithful. Shamura can now scale back their work and retain what sanity and mental strength they have now. Shamura and Gaia are so proud of you and so is the clan!"

Fernilla said. She really knows how to make her feel proud. The ladies have been hanging out since their fated encounter with Narinder, but as time began to pass and the memory of Narinder has faded, a certain Peace has settled on the Faithful Clan.

"Have you been eating well?"

"Of course! Compared to what you feed me and my staff, I leave your palace always fit to burst!"

She laughs as Heket smiled. Its been a whole since she can put her true emotions on display. She felt safe enough to do so with Fernilla, to feel vulnerable with her.

'Of course Moses would die to protect Fernilla...she Is clearly worth it.'

Heket thought as they walked. Fernilla was such a ray of sunshine that the Clan needed. Since her introduction into the clan, many have asked to paint her and even build shrines in her likeness. Sure, she was embarrassed, but she accepted them graciously.

"Im still in awe that I have such a huge shrine"

"Well, everyone has one...why? Is it too small? I can have it rebuilt bigger-"

"No! Thats bit unnecessary, all that hard work would go to waste. I just felt like my offerings are alot more than you guys"

Heket stopped.

"Your observations are getting better dear Fernilla, I have noticed this as well. When a new god is announced, many will flock to them to get immediate spots that usually are high ranking positions, like second hand, head maid or servant, positions that pay very well. I have my fair share especially now, but Elder sibling usually Vets out the suspicious ones."

She continued.

"Unfortunately, you being naive will lead them to your doorstep, so If you feel like one of your staff members is getting a bit worrying for you, don't hesitate to come to me immediately"

Heket said as she looked at Fernilla. Her face furrows and looks concerned.

"I see...I understand"

Heket takes her hand and squeezes it.

"Do not fret, like before, we will not let any harm come to you, okay? Trust me as the new High Bishop"

Fenilla smiles.

"Of course, Dear Heket"

She beamed. Heket nodded as they continued their walk. Then she spoke again

"And one more thing...if anyone plots against you for the sake of another crown, that is an instant execution"

The two maids jumped.

"Wha? Why would you say that?!?"

"Just to inform you, okay?"

She nodded as they all walked back to Heket's palace. The maids who were with hen spread that information like wildfire, just as Heket wanted. If anyone wanted to hurt her their precious Rabbit, they will pay with their lives.
