Nodes outside range of gateway but within range of another node #53

I am wondering if EnigmalOT supports something in the following situation:

Now in this situation can Node C:

Essentially i am asking if nodes outside the range of the root node/gateway can join the network through another node(s) which ARE connected to the root node/gateway and use the functions like a node within range of the gateway. Or would i have to implement this myself (EG a layer on top of your layer of ESP now - sounds inefficient to me).

I know this has been done with ESP-MESH (aka ESP-NOW) but cant find a "easy" to use wrapper/library and i really like the other features this library offers so hoping this is the case (as i need this for my application).

Sorry if this is confusingly worded or already addressed but saw no mention of it in the docs, technical spec or current/closed issues so wanted to ask. Many thanks, Leah
