Back in the real world, Luna led Orpheus through the halls of her secluded manor, an elegant space with high ceilings, warm wooden finishes, and a faint scent of lavender lingering in the air. It was a private sanctuary, rarely visited by anyone besides a few loyal maids who attended to the manor's upkeep. After kindly excusing the staff for the evening, Luna made her way to her personal quarters for a much-needed bath.
The water was warm and soothing, washing away the remnants of their rigorous training. She closed her eyes, letting the quiet peace of the manor settle over her. It was a stark contrast to the wild intensity of the forest training and the disciplined rhythm of their drills, and for a moment, she simply let herself enjoy the calm.
