Chapter 42: Call

The Temple of Partition waits in amber hush—stone, light, and quiet air that turns footsteps into ceremony. Kenshiro leads the way inside, past mosaics that remember more than he wants to admit, carrying a knot of fear and hope he can’t untie. Last time here was anything but simple. This time, he’s come for answers—about the world that claimed him, the system that shadows his steps, and the woman whose image rises like a vow on the chapel wall.What follows is an act of faith and a test of intent. The party gives the hall its space while Kenshiro chooses how to reach across a distance that isn’t measured in miles. On the far side of devotion lie rules, costs, and the possibility of being heard—but not without limits. Whatever the outcome, the road ahead narrows into purpose, and the next move carries both risk and resolve.Support the story and help bring Nowhere to life at:https://www.patreon.com/c/jadinkel
