I stepped into what was probably the main altar. In front of the altar was a long table, and in front of it, cushions for kneeling were carefully placed. On the cushions, worshippers were praying earnestly. Their appearance was serious, and I could sense their deep trust and respect for the god enshrined at this altar.
I do not know who this god is or what he presides over. Still, it is clear that he is a being that brings benefits to the people gathered here. The fervor of that faith was in the air.
A young man kneels alone on a cushion, praying. His expression was serious, and there was no room for distractions. Behind him, a dragon ornament carved into the wall watched him intently. It was as if it were a guardian supporting a sacred act.
