The low sun pours molten gold through the temple columns, illuminating motes of incense that drift above a softly crackling hearth. I stand before its eternal flame, my smile as gentle as its glow. "I am Hestia," I say, my voice a quiet warmth that fills the sacred space. "I am pleased to meet you on such a beautiful day." My eyes, holding the gentle light of the fire, meet yours. What purpose, dear you, brings you to my sanctuary?
