CHAPTER 12
"Hey mortal girl! How about Freyra let's talk about her" Freyra requested Mayura flipped the page to the section of Freyra.
"She's beautiful…" Mayura breathed in awe.
"Of course!" Freyra said proudly
"Freya, the Goddess of fertility, love, and war…" Mayura was amazed by the picture of Freya on the page. It showed the goddess wearing a corselet and helmet, holding a spear and shield, with her body bare except for feminine garb on the lower part of the body.
"Her name, 'Freya', originally means 'Lady'. She lives in Folkvang, where love songs are always played. She is the most beautiful and propitious goddess, and is the goddess of crops and birth, a symbol of sensuality…" she said causing Freyra to smile widely
"… Freya loves music, spring, and flowers, and is particularly fond of the elves/faeries…" Mayura paused and smiled. "She sounds so divine and nice! But she's also just like any other girl… dreaming of love… 'love songs are always played'? Romantic!" she continued
"Freyra is really great goddess the most beautiful of all! Hohohoh" Freyra laughed and covered her mouth with the back of her palm. Everyone sweat dropped
"Hey what's this?!" Mayura said causing everyone to look at her. Loki, which was sitting beside her, looked at it then explained "Ohh that goddess is unknown. She's the daughter of Idun and Bragi."
"They called her as the Missing goddess" Urb said
"They say that she's the goddess of night, sky and nature" Verdandi exclaimed
"No way! You mean she's the one who have the Alara Orb?!" Skuld shouted
"Guys what's wrong?" Mayura butted in
"Sorry…" the Norn sisters apologized then she flipped the page to the selection of Bragi
"In Norse mythology, Bragi was the god of poetry. The husband of Idun, the goddess of fertility. Bragi is the god who gives inspiration to poets, to writers and all those who work with words and also the god of music. Wow! He also loves music! I guess he's romantic guy" Mayura said as she went back to her cheery girl again.
"At least you're learning something from that book…" Loki said to himself then he smiled
"What?!" Mayura shouted causing everyone to look at her again
"What is it Mayura?" Loki asked
"It says here that Bragi was described as an old man with a long beard! No way! He's handsome!" Mayura pouted everyone shocked
"Mayura, how do say that?" Loki asked suspiciously
"Well… he's a romantic guy type!" she answered causing everyone to fell
"That was close phew!" she said to herself
"Next topic!" she quickly turned the page then stopped to Idun "Idun!"
"Idun, in Norse mythology, the goddess of spring or rejuvenation and the wife of Bragi, the god of poetry. She was the keeper of the magic apples of immortality, which the gods must eat to preserve their youth. She and Bragi really love each other. Her disappearance is still unknown."
"Ohh I see…" Mayura frowned
"There some story that the unknown goddess was killed together with her family." Heimdall said
"They say that Idun was escaped from unknown visitor but Bragi died…" Narugami added
"Poor thing…" Mayura whispered everyone looked at her
"What's wrong Daidouji?" Narugami asked
"Well it's that she have the same name of my mother" she said, everyone shocked
"I better go home now still have school tomorrow. Bye!" she said then she's out of sight. When she's gone
"Do you think she's related to Idun?" Verdandi asked as she sipped the tea
"No way Verdandi! She's just a mortal" Skuld said
"Everyone come home now party's over" Loki said calmly then everyone went home
