- sometimes in the wind of change -
She has not been here before, but she knows of it. It feels strange to come now, to this place she’s avoided. Not because she feared it or the Gods, but because it felt wrong to wander in their home without reason. Certainly it wasn’t, she knows this, but still, she’s always looked from afar to this place. She travels by foot today, over the bridge and the path that seems to keep her somehow safe from the active volcano. The magma rolls over the island, growing its reach daily, and it feels symbolic of the Gods and their reach. More and more come into Helovia. The lands thrive. The Gods control more. Or perhaps she’s reading too much into the volcano.
For a moment, she pauses at the shrines. She has only seen two of the four Gods, and the likeness of the Sun and Spark Gods do not seem like they mimic real life. They too are symbolic. Probably. Again, maybe she is reading too much into it. Maybe she is too much her old self sometimes, always looking between the lines.
Eventually, stops in front of the Moon Goddess’s statue. Today, she has business here, though in truth she would be content to examine the shrines and the strangeness of this place. But after Kaos had arrived, she’d been thinking. She had dived into battle then, ready less to fight but more to keep everyone else alive and well. Yes, she would fight. She needed to brush up her skills, to make certain she could keep herself going as well. But she wanted to be there to help everyone.
And in truth, in a selfish way, she’d felt alive in that moment. Useful. And should she ever stop serving as a Moon Doctor, she did not want to lose the ability to heal. Not that she planed to fail the herd anytime soon, but others more capable than her might come along. She planned to be the best suited for the job, but still, she wanted to make sure she retained some of the magic the goddess had loaned her should her time as Moon Doctor come to an end.
“Goddess?” she asks softly, not certain how to begin even going about this. But she imagines she doesn’t have to say anything at all, that their Lady already knows her thoughts and plans. So now, standing in front of the Moon’s shrine, she waits.
