Priestess Of The Land

Tria and Crei's return had really livened up the castle's atmosphere, upon their arrival they were dragged to the dining hall where the three protectors and God Hoth were already seated and waiting.

"My dear niece, do you know how much I've missed you," said Lord Aten as he hugged Tria, ignoring Crei's jealous stare.

"Uncle, you didn't miss me that much, since you had time to go make misdeeds in the Sun land," answered Tria playfully.

"Cough! You already heard about that?" he answered as he let go of Tria, "that's in the past now, come, let's eat you must be famished from traveling for so long."

"Hm, sure," she followed along.

As she sat down, the three protectors nodded towards her in greeting, but God Hoth was just drinking his wine as he glanced towards her. He had always been aloof towards her, and she never understood why. In any case, it did not stop her from eating her fill and enjoying the company of her uncle.

"Did you have a good rest?" Lord Aten asked.

"Hm, yes, I did."

"What do you plan to do now?"

"Well I do plan on continuing my journey, I don't like being kept in the dark about the priestesses' pasts, so I will travel alongside God Hoth to help him retrieve his memories. In return, he'll tell me what I want to know, which should help me understand my role in all this. I do not want to blindly follow something that has hidden purposes."

Lord Aten understood his niece's troubles, and his heart ached at the fact that he could not help her. His memories were wiped out just like the rest of the Moon population, and even so, he never cared about the chosen priestesses, so he was clueless. Her only hope at finding the hidden truth is to help God Hoth find his memories.

"When will we start our travels, I already have everything ready," God Hoth finally spoke.

"I figured as much, we can leave tomorrow," Tria answered him with the same tone.

God Hoth went back to drinking his wine and Tria continued conversing with Lord Aten.

Crei, who was sitting beside her, was looking over the other people at the table. The three protectors were also talking to each other and laughing. Mata and Ono were picking on Jeep because he refused to return to his adult form. His eyes then turned over to God Hoth, and to his surprise, God Hoth was also observing him and signaled him with his eyes to meet outside the hall.

Without startling anyone, God Hoth got up and left the hall, with Crei following him after informing Tria.

Hoth led him outside the castle, over a flat mountain peak near the town.

"..." they silently faced each other.

"I know I am right about this, my instincts are never wrong," God Hoth started as he smirked.

"You must be a woman, how can your instincts never be wrong," Crei mocked him in response since this guy was not warm towards his wife, there was no way he'd let it go either.

Feeling indignant about being mocked, God Hoth suddenly transform into his true form, revealing his Godly image of the moon.

"As expected, you are not affected," God Hoth's voice reverberated out.

Crei knew God Hoth was unto him, and he was glad that he took him away from the castle, but it was still too early for anyone to find out about his secret, especially not Hoth.

"Since you know, I hope you can keep your mouth shut," Crei said as his eyes turned black.

Crei's new aura was enough to suppress a God, Hoth became even more interested in Crei.

"I can do that, but I want to know, which one are you?" he managed to ask through the pressure.

"I would have to kill you if I have to tell you," threatened Crei coldly.

"...I think you will eventually have to reveal it...so I can wait," Hoth answered in resignation, he had just woken up from a long slumber, although he was powerful, it was not enough to take on a being like Crei.

Crei no longer paid him any mind and disappeared into thin air.

Hoth was in for another surprise, "teleportation skills?!"

Left on his own, Hoth spent some extra time to get his mobility back.

Crei had appeared back into the courtyard of the guest house, where he knew Tria was waiting, startling her out her daydream.

"You're back," she welcomed him.

"Were you thinking of me?" he asked as he walked towards her.

"You wish," she teased," but seriously though, I was thinking about going to your home."

"Oh…you must really want husband to conquer you," he teased.

Tria roller her eyes," you can never be serious."

Crei continued teasing her as Tria laughed in embarrassment which could be heard from the castle, making the others' mood sappy about their own love life.
