Weiryn's Question
Disclaimer: Tamora Pierce owns the characters you recognize.
"Please, Great Mother goddess, Mithros, help me for I am to be forced into wedlock. I will give you anything I can to get out." She then got up to practice shooting bows and making medicine. Not knowing at the time that someone watching over her caught her prayers.
~~in the Divine Realms~~
"Brothers, Sisters, I ask of you to grant me the power to help someone by letting me go to the Mortal Realms." Weiryn begged of his siblings for once letting his normally emotionless face show his desperation and worry.
"Tell me of whom you want to help and why you are asking." The Great Mother Goddess said.
"This is one of the few things I would ask of you. She is Sarra of Galla and I have been watching over her for awhile now. She has saved many people even they only acknowledge her looks and not personality. And is to be forced into wedlock within a month, I am asking this of you because I have grown to care for her and wish to help comfort her and perhaps help her out. She has also prayed to you Mithros and you, Great Mother Goddess. Here is her prayer."
"We can not help you much, the only ones that can are Mother Flame and Father Universe. We will ask with you only since she has managed to do in a couple of years what we could never do in thousands of them. She has managed to break through to you and put some emotion on your face. Not because she prayed to us, for every mortal soul prays when forced into marriage." The Great Mother Goddess said in a tone that could bring the strongest and bravest men on their feet.
Then the Black God spoke, in a deep hushed timber. "The one that is her mother is to die soon, along with her soon-to-be husband. Her mother knows that she is supposed to die for was told awhile ago. If Mother Flame and Father Universe grant you the wish fate has to run its course and both of them die before you speak to her."
~~Soon after and elsewhere in the Divine Realms~~
In a temple-house Weiryn with his Brother Mithros and Sister Great Mother Goddess they called for Mother Flame and Father Universe. "Mother, Father we ask of you to help Weiryn visit the Mortal Realms."
"Child, you need not speak of what you know I know. Now please leave so Weiryn and I can speak alone for a bit." Mother Flame said in a powerful but kind voice. "My son, tell me how you feel for this girl before I can do anything. You must also be able to pay the price of traveling."
"Mother I care very deeply for her, more so then anyone I have met before. All I wish to do is to help bring a smile to my face as she did to mine when I watched her." Weiryn said in a voice sounding very much like he was infatuated with the girl. It was almost a shock to his Mother who knew that it was rare of him to show any emotion.
"That is all I needed to here. Now hear me out so you can decide afterwards. Only Greater gods and Mortals can be in the Mortal Realm when it is not on certain days. We can not make you a Greater god, but we can make you a mortal. You need to change back on holidays though and will have some of your god abilities. When you need to come back to the Divine Realms pray to either your father or I."
"I understand, I still want to and will wait for fate to pass. Thank you Mother Flame." Weiryn said and walked back to his home after telling his sister the good news.
