After cleaning up, Jolene is still waiting for Tonya and Alaric. She lays back in a rock and stares up at the sun. A sadness washes over her. She realizes that she didn't get to talk to Apollo.

She doesn’t say a word.He groans sarcastically, “What's on your mind?”She's about to speak, but someone interrupts her.Alaric's voice booms, “Can't you read her mind?”Apollo gives him a warning glance.Alaric chuckles, “So you can read my mind but not hers?”Apollo corrects him, “I read your future, not your mind.”Alaric mocking

The silence between them was palpable, like a coiled spring ready to snap at any moment."Rora," Jolene began, her voice steady and firm, "if Theo wins, you can have your wedding on the sun. But there's one condition—you must get married in the castle, and nowhere else."Rora blinked, caught off guard by Jolene's sudden assertiveness. She wasn't used to being confronted like this, especially not by someone she thought she had undermined. The power dynamic shifted in an instant, and Rora's smirk faltered. Yet, beneath her surprise, anger simmered."Why does it matter where we get married?" Rora shot back, her voice sharp with defiance. "Isn't the sun enough of a setting for you?"Jolene held her ground, unflinching. "It's about respect," she said, her tone even and measured. "The sun is going to be my home one

Alaric couldn't contain his excitement as he stood before Theo. His eyes were wide with awe, and his hands gesticulated wildly as he spoke. "You're the Theo who was a great warrior for the Moon Goddess, right?" he began, his voice filled with admiration. "I've heard so many stories about you! My grandmother used to tell me how you saved the Moon Goddess from her daughter long ago.
