"To answer both of your questions; Et is where Hetakanna and I both came from." Atarakka replied.

"So you were right on that, Anik", Timea commented, though not looking to her. "But, Hetakanna? I assume that is the true name of Calibeth?"

"So it was really the original one ... He did not create humans himself, did he? And ... he was worshipped, but is no longer. So, I guess Calibeth ... or Hetakanna, did not like him very much?

Oh, and could you answer what a god like Faotar is in this Pantheon?"

[color=9f2089]"No, that was all I came to talk about."[/color] Cybil replied. Not wanting to sound conceited of self-centered, she didn't bother asking about why the leaders came to the decisions they did.

Veketta - Day 6

"It's no problem. Listening to the people is our job, after all." Ferren said to Robin.

"Calibeth is the name he goes by, Hetakanna is what I call him." Atarakka told Timea. She then looked at Anik and said, "I don't know how Hetakanna felt about Et... but I do know he was the reason we are separate beings now. As for Faotar, they are one of the lesser gods, the small stars in the sky. Except, unlike them, Faotar came down to the world to guide and protect the animals."

"I see... ." Timea thought for a moment, thinking if this difference in names could be worth asking about, concluding it probably wasn't. Instead, she went down the list of questions she had in her head, and asked, "So, now it's clear where the two of you came from, but what lead to the two of you waging war?"

"Alright. So, is Ca ... Hetakanna dead now, or did something else happen to him? And how can the stars be gods, if they are also orbs of sky metal, not really doing something? Or are these the ... corpses of gods?" Anik added her questions.

"He was the one that started the hostilities so, if anyone knows, it would be him. But you can't ask him any more, so... no idea." Atarakka informed Timea. After hearing Anik's questions, the goddess sighed and said, "The answers to those questions are very complicated, and even I don't fully understand. What people living down here as balls of light in the sky; stars, the sun and the moon, are the deities. When a deity is killed, their body falls, often landing on this world in the form of sky-metal. So, yes, I suppose calling sky-metal their corpses would be accurate. When a deity dies, however... it isn't always permanent. They cease to be, until they come to be again, forming from nothing. In that respect, saying something else happened to him, other than death, might be more accurate."

[color=9f2089]"Alright, well we're still staying in town, so we'll just wait to hear from you then."[/color] Cybil remarked as she left as well.

Looking to kill more time again, she went back over to the training ground she had spotted before being rudely interrupted.

Previously due to Internet issues - Glacier 7:20

"I guess it does!" Hillary laughed in tandem. While still holding onto Anik, she brought her other hand up to her mouth, and with a small but familiar crunch of ice, bit a finger off. "Ice doesn't really taste like anything..." Hillary commented in a somewhat disappointed tone. "But it is kinda pretty~" Hillary said, spotting some of the clearer looking ice as they continued moving forwards.

"So... maybe he's just having a really long nap or something? We just gotta wake him up again and then we can ask him what's going on?" Hillary asked the tall lady.

Anik said, a little confused: "What did you just eat? ... But yes, it's water, water does not really taste like anything, either.
But, you can actually mix water with something else, like strawberries, and then freeze it. Then it tastes like strawberries!"


"I bet it is ..." she added, for once wishing she could see, or more importantly, understand the prettiness of the ice.

"I think I understand it, in some way. What you said, not the reasons, obviously." Anik said to Atarakka.
She listened to Hillary's question, then added to that: "If he is so prone to war ... is there a way he could come back, being less prone to it? Or ... if he does endanger the world constantly, could some other god take the place as the sun?"

"That could be one way of looking at it... but you'd need to find him to wake him up, and to my knowledge he simply doesn't exist any more." Atarakka informed Hillary. She then considered Anik's queries, before replying, "When a deity comes back, they come back the way they were when they died. If you wanted to change him, you'd have to do it after he returns. But I don't know if that would even be possible. As for making a replacement sun, I don't know. You could try."

"Um... some ice? From my finger?" Hillary answered, not really understanding why Anik would ask that specific question. "Oh! I'd like to eat a bunch of strawberries! Whatever they are, they sound good!"

[hr]

Glacier - Day 7 - 7:27

"Then we could just get him from the nothing like you said, where's that?" Hillary asked in a straight forward manner.

"... You're not eating your fingers, are you? What ... does it grow back? I don't really understand how you work.

And yes, we definitely should find strawberries. I think this should be our next quest, after this one is over. Finding strawberries!"
Anik said, with a happy laugh.

[hr]

Glacier - Day 7 - 7:27

"Yes, I don't think we can change a god." Anik started, but then let out a laugh when Hillary chimed in. "I don't think she meant that, Hillary. I think he is just not there, right now.

Anyways, hmm ... if we could try making someone else the sun, we probably would need to prevent Calibeth from coming back again. Would that be possible?"

Since the training grounds appeared to be completely deserted, Cybil groaned to herself. She looked around for training swords and dummies, and if capable of finding one would start practicing her swordwork.

Veketta - Day 6

When Cybil got to the training grounds, she would find a few people training with wooden swords, both on dummies and with other people. She would find a few racks with wooden swords on them, which she would be able to take.

"Well... it's nowhere. You can't go to nothingness. At least, not without dying." Atarakka told Hillary. She then said to Anik, "I don't know how or why gods return after dying, so I couldn't tell you how to prevent it."

"Of course they grow back, it would make it hard to hold things otherwise." Hillary replied in a matter of fact tone. "Timea said that people like you can't do that kinda stuff, so that's okay if you don't." Hillary added, remembering a similar conversation she'd had with Timea on this subject.

"So what are strawberries like?" Hillary then asked, moving on from the finger eating like it was similar to breathing.
