What does もとに mean in this sentence?

Japanese Language

Hi, this is some intro text from an old game called Clock Tower, I can’t tell what もとに means here

グラニット孤児院にて養育されていた少女、ジェニファーと友人たちのもとに養女としてひきとりたいという要望がまいこんだのはその年の９月のことである

Any help appreciated,
thanks.

I believe it’s meaning 5 here.

元
(someone’s) side; (someone’s) location

It’s there for 舞いこむ to say where the request came in to. It’s the definition the user above posted
