Iteral just notions to Mona while she erects the first floor of the
castle, a little worried about her. "Come on Kendo, give the Deity
what she wants." She said, then concentrating for a bit to mix
concrete with magic.
You know the first rule in combat?
Shoot them before they shoot you.
She smiled and turned around to return the embrace, grasping him
just as tightly. After tasting what death was like, she didn't want
to think about what she's been through for the past millennium.
"Stay with me..." She whispered, burying her face into his jacket.

"Where else would I go? I might disappear for a little bit to find
my sister- who's very likely dead, but you never know- but I'll try
my best to be there for you."
She nodded quietly. "You smell like strawberries. That's new." She
chuckled, shaking her head and letting go. "I'm going to be honest,
Kendo. I'm not sure what I'm going to do. Aretstikaphaniela is the
Saint Deity of the land now. I have no say or legal rule. Whatever
am I going to do with myself?"

"Maybe... That would ensure I could stay with you, at least." She
laughed. "I suppose you'd have to show me the ropes first. Or maybe
we could build a quiet life here. Would you like that?"

"... I'd love to have a family of my own..." She smiled and looked
down, beginning to let her thoughts go overboard and carry her into
fantasy land. "I've wanted that for as long as I can
remember..."
While she was lost in thought, a distant rumbling noise came from
far away.

"Just think about it, Kendo!" She beamed happily, looking up at him
with big eyes. "We'd have a house big enough for us, a room for
each of our needs and interests, and we'd be woken up by a
beautiful girl or boy that looked just as gorgeous as their
father-" She stopped to fawn at the idea, turning away to cover her
face. "A life that humans get to live... But we aren't human..."

Her smile grew. She absolutely adored this man. "I want to be-" She
stopped suddenly. The rumbling grew louder. As if the land knew
what was about to happen. "Kendo...?"

"Something's wrong." She noticed the absence of the current Saint
Deity. "Wait... Kendo...! Look!" She pointed above them. Celaeno
was awake. And in their hand was Aret's soul.
"If I can't kill you..." They spoke in a voice that was
threateningly quiet. "I'll let nature take it's course." They
crushed her soul in their fist until nothing was left.
The earth below them began to shake.

"Nothing is going to hold anymore!" She stretched her wings out and
looked at Kendo and Iteral frantically. Hopefully wherever the
others were, they were okay. Hopefully. "We have to get in the air
otherwise we'll be killed!"
Parts of the ground sunk below, veins of molten rock- lava streamed
around them. Everything was melting away quickly, falling into the
pits of liquid fire.
