Chapter 32: Domain

Tara is led deeper into the spiritual realm, where she encounters a space that mirrors her home on Earth—comforting yet disorienting. This uncanny setting is revealed to be her domain, a manifestation of her growing divine identity. Within it, she meets Mela, a powerful and enigmatic goddess, whose presence exerts an almost irresistible compulsion. Their conversation explores the nature of domains, power, and the responsibilities Tara now bears as a godling. With the revelation that her domain is both sanctuary and seat of power, Tara begins to grasp the scale and significance of her new role in the grander metaphysical order.
