Chapter 5: Sarra's Idea
"Sarra, I'm not so sure about this idea of yours," the Badger god commented.
"And why not? It's a good idea and it will help her out." Sarra replied a little miffed at his comment.
""Its good that you want to help your daughter, but what if something goes wrong? What if they figure it out?" the Badger asked.
I already asked the great gods and they approved the plan so there is no need to worry about them punishing us." Sarra stated.
"That's not the ones I'm referring to. I was talking about her friends. What would happen if they were to find out about this? Figure out what was happening?" Badger said with a sigh.
"Hmm..."
"You know they can't figure out that she really is alive. It would mess up the whole plan the greater gods have put together. She has to wait for her friends to find that out, and then the Great Ones will reward her. You know this. We cannot ruin this plan."
"I know, Badger, I'm not planing on ruining something for them even if it does ruin my baby's life. I guess then you should go for the horse and lead them to believe that she is in the Realm of the Dead without actually lying to them," Sarra said.
"Why me?" the animal god demanded.
"Because it would be more feasible you're going to the Realm of the Dead to give her Cloud than it would for some random goddess to. That is all I would be to them, a random goddess, not her mother since the haven't even seen me before." Sarra replied patiently.
"Then what are you going to do?" he asked.
"I'll go, as the Green Lady, and get the wolves. I'll tell that Maura that the gods need them for an important mission, and convince her it has absolutely nothing to do with Daine."
"And how exactly are you going to do that?" the Badger inquired, "You can't go to the mortal realms except on a equinox or solstice."
Sarra sighed, "Didn't I tell you? I've been given permission for a while to go there in cases involving my daughter whenever I want. Granted, they have to be a little spaced and not interfere with the plan, but for as long as she is in Carthak, I can go to her whenever she needs me."
"Are you sure about her wolf pack, though? It seems like a unnecessary risk."
"If we play it out right, it won't affect anything. And yes I'm sure about this. She wants her family and these are the only ones we can give her."
The Badger sighed. He knew better than to try to argue with the new goddess. She of course had everything worked out; this was her daughter they were talking about here. "Fine. Fine I'll go along with this. Did you at least ask Old White about this?"
"Of course I did," Sarra said smiling, "Don't worry Badger, this will work out all right."
""Yeah? I hope you're right."
