Though fatigue marked their ascent, the boundless vistas had made the journey
rewarding. Upon reaching the summit, they were welcomed by the dazzling
brilliance of the setting sun, a sight both awe- inspiring and serene.
Atemple, named Quie Temple, stood at the peak. The peaceful ambiance was
enhanced by its modest size and the limited number of visitors due to the late
hour.
After resting, Millie purchased incense and proceeded to the main hall for her
offering. Inside, a statue of Maitreya Buddha beckoned.

mountain,” she suggested, eager to show Marcus the surrounding beauty, filled
with towering trees and intriguingly shaped rocks.
