.... many hours spent in prayer, in solitude. Taught the discipline the religious followers demand. After her journey to that holy place, her protection from harm was confirmed. Made to watch and partake in the highest rituals ... a requirement for what 'they' plan for her in the years that follow.
Her parents followed the trail to the holy city ... but could not get granted a release. Whisked away to an isolated place of the cloth. Out in the wilds in isolation to begin her service that is planned to last so many decades. Hidden away from the prying eyes ... forced into dedication by the firm laws of the silent sisters.
