the memories of a goddess part 1

the memories of a goddess part 1

Her first memory was of the creator slowly forging her people in his red talons. She watched as he lovingly carved the details of what would be their forms into their very existence. As he began to finish his divine work she took in her creator in his totality.

He was what many would find terrifying a being of over 9 feet tall with spike covering his body that seemed to shine with a red glow like he had just been dipped in blood. He had razor sharp teeth and his limbs ended with talons.

While she had been taking in her creator in as he worked she had also been listening to him. For he spoke to being she could not see called Simon. Unlike the creators voice which was a terrifying thing like the screech of a monster before it went in for the kill. This Simon sounded strange as though his voice came through like a broken mike barely understandable to her through all the static, but to her creater it seemed to be crystal clear.

He would have terrified most beings but not her for he was her creater and as such his form was the correct one. It would be her who was defective if she found him a being of terror for every act he had taken was that of divine creation she was proof of that.

Sadly her time with the creator was short. So she and the people were brought to the world they would call home. The creater called this world Allyssa and so she told the people the name of their home and went about guiding them on how to live on the grassy planes.

First calling upon the knowledge that was a part of her being on how to use plant life in this case it was tall grass. She taught the people how to weave the tall grass into usable material but she then found her first problem. She did not have any crops that would grow quick enough to be harvested before the people starved. She had no choice but to use her connection to the creator to ask for his aid on this matter.

" Creator the people require food but I do not know of any crops that grow quickly enough to feed the people in time before they starve. Could you render aid creator?" Detrei asked Robert hoping he would help her with this issue.

" It's okay Detrei you don't need me on this issue you can use your power as the goddess of harvest to create new seeds to fit your needs." Robert answered figuring she just needed a reminder.

" I've never done such a thing before could you help me through the process creator" Detrei asked nervously hoping her creater would render further aid and not get angered by taking up more of his time on things she knew how to do.

" Sure Detrei I would be glad to help you through your first act of creation." Robert answered happy to help Detrei through the process as well as make sure her first plant creation didn't go off the rails. " First you hold out your hands in front of you well closing your eyes." Robert said to Detrei giving her the first step of the process.

" Okay creator my eyes are closed and my hands are in front of me" Detrei said responding to the first step.

" Good now I want you to imagine a seed in between your hand." Robert said to Detrei as she proceeded to do as instructed.

" I am imagining a seed in between my hands Creator." Detrei said confirming she had done as instructed.

" Good now I want you to imagine what you need the plant that will grow from this seed to do." Robert said to Detrei as his next instruction.

" I need the plant to grow fast and rich in nutrients for it to feed the people in time." Detrei said to her creator.

" Good now usually this would be the step were you would fill it with your divinity till it came into being. But since I'm here and can help you to better judge how much divinity is needed. For too much divinity could have unintended consequences. So I'll fill it with mine till the seed is created so you can better gauge how much is needed." Robert said to Detrei before he began to slowly fill the imagined seed with miniscule amounts of divinity before making it real in a flash of light seen only by Detrei. Detrei could tell through the power of her domain that the creater had succeeded in creating the seed for the special crops they needed.

" well Creator now that you've created the first I shall now begin the process of creating the rest the people need one at a time." Detrei said to Robert while holding her hands together and beginning to replicate her creater's earlier success.

" No need Detrei now that this first plant has been created you can simply look upon the knowledge within yourself and use it to create as many as you need of this plant." Robert said to Detrei informing her of this update to her personal list of crops.

" Thank you for telling me this creator. I will do so now." Detrei said to Robert before she began to look inside herself and finding her list of plants she saw the new plant unnamed and began to make them in vast quantities for the people.

" Now Detrei before you began to give the plant to the people you should give it a name first." Robert said to Detrei feeling as Detrei's first creation even if he had helped her and what would have been a world changing plant in other circumstances deserved at least a name.

" I'll call it Sircosa creater." Detrei said not finding the importance of naming the plant but doing it anyway to please the creator.

" Good name" Robert said satisfied with the name Detrei had chosen for her plant. He then watched from his workshop as she used her divinity to provide enought Sircosa to keep her people fed until they could grow enough to sustain themselves on the regular crops Detrei had already provided.

Robert watched Detrei as she guided her people in taking care of the fields always making sure they were in peak condition. This allowed for an abundant harvest. This all come to an end when the herds grew to monstrous sizes with their birthes out weighing their deaths by far. This caused them to charge the people when the different herds were challenging each other.

Detrei faced with this new problem of the herds and had no way to deal with them. So she once again ask the creator for aid and luckily just like last time the creator answered.

" Creator the herds of horses and oxen have grown out of control and now threaten the people. I have no way of dealing with this threat. So I must ask for your help." Asked Detrei pleading for aid against the herds from the creator.

" Don't worry Detrei we'll figure this out" Robert said to Detrei as he thought on the problem. "Hmmm hay Simon you think I should add a predator to hunt the herds to thin them out a bit that way they're not so much of threat?" Robert asked Simon.

" I don't so Robert whatever you create to thin out the herds will probably end up hunting the people as well. Which would defeat the purpose of their creation. So no matter how much I would like a terror of the plains to boost ratings you probably shouldn't." Simon said to Robert answering his question.

A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

" Good point Simon ignoring your usual rating shenanigans. You helped me dodge a bullet there. Hmmm then how to help the people avoid being crushed by hooves." Robert said as he gazed on Allyssa trying to find an answer. Looking for a while before he found it. " Theres the answer right there." Robert shouted out as he pointed to one of the many hills dotted throughout the continent.

" That hill is the answer creator?" Asked Detrei confused about how a single hill could answer the problem of the herds that were made up of thousands by this point.

" Not a hill Detrei, The hills will be answer. You will have the people carve out homes at the tops of the hills where they should be safe from the charges of oxes and horses who would need flat ground to charge." Answered Robert feeling proud of his idea.

" Well creator we know where the people must go but how do they live on the hills they are a people of the grassy plains. Not of the hills how would they live at the top of the hills." Asked Detrei glad to know they had part of the solution but still noting it was only part of it and they needed to figure out how to guide the people on how to live on the hills.

" Hmmm your right Detrei and I'm not sure how to rectify that. I can create gods with the knowledge of their domains such as your knowledge of the harvest but I don't have that knowledge myself. So I dont know how to live in hills." Robert stated feeling rather frustrated that his lack of knowledge was holding them back.

" Well don't worry my dear contestant Robert your host Simon has the solution. You can simply pour some of your divinity into Detrei so she can expand her domain and with that expansion gain new knowledge." Simon said sounding smug.

" What Detrei's domain can expand?" Robert asked surprised and excited at this new information.

" Yes my contestant Robert, her domain can expand. So as you know a god's domain is what they have power over such as in Detrei case as a goddess of harvest she has power of crops and has all knowledge on them. Now usually a god would gain enough power to expand their domain on their own and gain power over a new subject related to their original domain but you can speed this process up by providing your power." said Simon to Robert explaining what Robert needed to do and why.

" While sounds like a plan to me. Are you willing to receive my power Detrei." Asked Robert figuring asking was what was proper thing to do in this scenario.

" Of course creator I am willing and honored to do so " Detrei said to the creator excited at the prospect of her creator's power flowing through her. Robert brought Detrei back to his workshop for the process to be done safely.

" Well then I shall begin." Robert said before holding out both of his taloned hands and building up the red energy from his core to his hands before slowly pouring it into Detrei. Detrei slowly began to fill with her creator's power until she could feel the power in every inch of her being.

Then once the power inside Detrei reached an Unknown threshold she was presented with three choices with how to expand her divine domain while suddenly shinning as brightly as a star.

Options

A- crafter of the harvesting blades

You are given the knowledge on how to create and maintain the tools used specifically for harvesting and maintaining crops. You will also be able to use divinity to create divine tools with divine capabilities to give to specific followers.

B- mistress of the hoof

You are given knowledge on how to tame and breed the herds of allyssa. By using divinity during the birthing process you can create breeds of divine beast that will roam the land.

C- tyrant of the map

You are given in depth knowledge on Allyssa's geography and with the use of divinity can rearrange the landscape of allyssa depending on how much power you spend.

" Creator I believe choosing the crafters of the harvesting blades will be the best option" Detrei stated in a questioning voice. Figuring it was their best option to make the hills livable for the people but wanting the creator's second opinion first before she chose the option.

" Oh and why is that Detrei?" Robert asked curious and hopeful because he had no clue how any of these options would make the hills liveable for people.

" Well Creator if we choose the tools option the first thing I will teach the people will be how to carve tool out of rock which will show them how to carve a home into the hills." Detrei said answering her creator's question as best as she could hoping it was the right answer.

" Hmm good point then pick option A and you can start to teach the people how to construct homes for themselves in the hills." Robert said agreeing with her reasoning and happy that his originally fears that none of the options would actually be of any help with the current situation.

" Then I shall creator." Detrei said answering the creator before she picked crafter of the harvesting blades and in a final display of dazzling light gained the knowledge and power that came with it the chose. She then went among her people and begin to teach them how to carve tools out of stone and with that knowledge of stone carving they begin to carve out homes for themselves in the hills.

Once the people had carved out their new cave homes in the hills and settled in. Detrei began to give out seeds for mushrooms and taught them how to grow moss in their new homes as a way to safely feed themselves. For a while they were content losing themselves in the work of getting their new underground fields in to shape.

But then once less work was needed for the fields the grief began to truly hit and the people began to feel the loss of those that had died to the stampedes those they had known for hundred of years. Not only that but a few of the hill towns were not as prosperous as others for having had more casualties from the stampedes.

Sadly though the people's eternal seed gave them the gift of immortality through rebirth it in turn took away their ability to have children. So with this new problem of grief and population they went to their goddess for answers.

" What do I do creator? I'm not sure how to handle grief and population ." Detrei asked lost on the subjects. She had never had children nor experiencing loss. Which left her with no experience to draw on nor did her divinity give her any answers. Since these subjects were outside her divinity's domain.

"Mmm I'm not sure on this one I figure we can give them a way to give birth easy enough. The problem will be helping them to deal with their grief. Especially since if we aren't careful your giving them a method of reproducing could be seen as telling them to replace the dead and forget about them without going through their grief properly." Robert told Detrei considered that any mismanagement of the issue could have devastating consequences between Detrei and her people later.

" Well that simple enough my dear contestant you simply need to tie the two together make it something like a marriage that way you have means of reproduction and these new couples could help each other through their grief " Simon said to Robert answering their dilemma.

" Good idea Simon." Robert said a bit shocked at how simple it was but how it solved everything so neatly. Even more surprising was that Simon didn't bring up his ratings or show in his answer.

" I could also use the romance to boost ratings. You know how the lady's are a sucker for a good romance story." Simon said quickly destroying Robert hope that Simon was starting to get away even a little bit from his job as a show host.

" And there it is. Well now that we have our answer we can began to act. We will have the people came together in pairs during a special ceremony precided over by a priestesses of yours Detrei who with your permission will bless them through your divinity with new eternal seeds from which new generations will grow does this sound like a good plan.?" Robert said wondering if his plan was covering all the bases.

" It sounds wonderful creator but how will I give these new priestesses the power to bless people with new eternal seeds." Detrei asked agreeing with her creator's plan but confused on how she would go about implementing it.

" Simple if you recall Detrei as a part of your new domain crafter of the harvesting blades you can create divine tools simple create one such tool as a symbol of station that has the ability to due as we planned." Robert said to Detrei explaining his plan to her in greater detail.

" Ah thank you creator but what tool should I create for my new order of priestesses and what should be their symbol?" Detrei asked her creator feeling like he should be the one to decide since it was his plan and since he made her and all she saw around her. She could not see how he could choose wrongly when he clearly had created so many great things.

" Mmmmm how about a staff crafted with divinity which has special slots in the head to hold new eternal seeds. So when the priestesses perform the ceremony you can have the priestess in question have both participants touch the staff before the staff draws on the strength from them and produces new eternal seeds in the slots which will grow into their children."Robert said having given and explained his idea for the tool of the new priestesses order.

" It sounds wonderfull creator the staff fits exactly what we need. But what of the symbol for the priestesses? They need a symbol for their order do they not?" Detrei asked happy the tool for the priestesses had been settled on but was curious about how they would go about making a symbol for such a group.

" Mmmmm your right they will need a symbol. But how to go about making one." Robert said wondering how exactly to go about making a symbol for Detrei new priestesses. He never was the greatest artist so symbols weren't exactly his forte.

" Well it's quite simple my dear contestant you simply need to stick to basics. What does your new order do and what are they responsible for?" Simon asked to get Robert the jump start he needed to come up with a symbol for Detrei.

" Hmm what do they do? Well they'll oversee the ceremony that allow the Detreon to have children. So how about the symbol be a seed growing into the outline of a small child." Robert said figuring this was the best way to represent the priestess.

" It sounds wonderful creator I shall began choosing priestess at once." Detrei said right before she began to assign the staff and a robe with the symbol sown into it to her more devout female worshipers.

With the new order of priestesses established. The rituals began taking place throughout all the hill towns. Soon the hill towns began to fill with joyous laughter of Detreon children as they laughed and played in the caves deep in their homes
