Mary gave a small snarl when someone came near her, her teeth were a bit sharpened, her family had werewolf blood in it, so that explained that. "Oh, that's fun. Alrighty, then I'm glad you came when you did. I don't enjoy being dead."

Celeste chuckled, keeping a wary eye on the other gods as they started to retreat into the forest to continue their battle. Finally, she turned back to the human, holding her hand out.
"I think it's time we go to my home, now," she said.

Mary took the hand, clutching it tightly. "Okay." She said in a small voice, her original anger had been replaced by fear. She trusted Celeste, but yet again, she was afraid this was all an elaborate hoax for the village to get revenge.

Celeste smiled comfortingly down at the human.
"There is no need to be afraid, little one." She pulled the human close, wrapping her other arm around the mortal. Then, making sure she had a tight grip on her human, she leaped into the air, quickly flying back to the sky. For a moment, they were weightless, floating above the world. They stayed there, just for a moment, before Celeste set down lightly.

Mary felt all the blood rush to her head as they flew into the air, she felt a bit sick. Oh gods, if this is what flying feels like I'm never doing it again, I feel like I'm going to vomit up my morning meal.

Still holding her mortal, Celeste started to walk to her near-invisible palace; it blended in with the night sky, and gave the impression that they were floating.
"Do you feel alright?" She asked as she looked down at the mortal.

"I feel sick." Mary admitted, looking very green. Well, as green as a human could look. She did look like she would throw up at any moment. "I'm sorry.."

"Do not apologize," Celeste said kindly, holding her mortal tenderly.
"'Tis my fault for not warning you." With a wave of her hand, a bucket appeared, which she held out to her human.
"Use this, little one. It would be most unfortunate if we upset the stars like that."

Mary gave a small thumbs-up before grabbing the bucket and throwing up in it. She wiped the edge of her mouth and gave a small smile. "Thank you."

"Your welcome," Celeste chuckled as they finally reached the entrance to her palace. The doors swung open for them, and the interior was finally visible. It was massive; they were greeted with a marble hall, the vaulted ceiling fading away into the night sky.

Mary looked around in awe, mouth opened like a codfish. "Big… Stars… Huge…" She muttered under her breath as she turned her head to try and look around as much as possible to try and see everything.

Celeste giggled, setting the human down on her feet.
"It's not much, but it's our home, little one," She said, putting her hand on the human's head lightly.

"Why is everything always so much taller than me." Mary huffed after looking around for a while, she was pretty damn short and pretty damn good at changing the subject.

"I find your height endearing; you're a much-needed change of pace here." Celeste smiled down at her human as she started to lead her away from the entrance. As they walked, the hall seemed to elongate, going further into the distance than should be possible.

Mary had to make twice as many steps to keep up with Celeste, she was already short enough as it is, and walking next to a seven-foot god just made her look smaller. "So what exactly do I do?"

"Well," Celeste said, musing, "All you really have to do is help me with my duties; mostly, there's really nothing to do. I have a lot of free time, so I figured it would be better to have someone here with me to spend it with." Celeste walked slowly so that her human wouldn't have to nearly run to keep up.

"And what better a way for someone to keep you company to be the woman who you saved. I don't have much a choice, but it sounds cool, so I'll do it." Mary thought out loud, finally deciding on what she would do.

"Thank you," Celeste said, smiling at the girl. She was glad that the mortal decided to do it of her own free will, mostly. Finally, Celeste stopped walking and motioned to a door on the wall.
"That is your room," she said. The door was definitely smaller than the others in the hall, and was a darker shade of marble.

"What's the door made of? Does it stay polished for a long time?" Mary started to ask, her old man was a blacksmith and she always enjoyed looking at metals and ores.

"It's a marble from the other side of the world," Celeste said. She didn't mind answering the human's questions. Her curiosity was cute.
"And it's been like this since it was made. No need to polish it."

"Strange…" She muttered before remembering where she was. "This is a god's realm, duh. I'm an idiot. It's probably magic or something." Mary said to herself, pushing open the door itself just to measure how heavy it was.

The door itself was fairly heavy; while it might have been easy for a goddess to open, it would be hard for a human of average strength. Celeste smiled down at the girl.
"Do you need some help, little one?" She asked.

Mary grunted as she tried to open it, finally stopping and looking at the goddess sheepishly. "Uh, yes please?" She asked, wiping her hands back onto her dress.

Celeste put her hand on the door, pushing it open with ease.
"We'll have to change that," She noted. Celeste would have to deal with the weight of the door later, if this was going to be the human's room.

Mary laughed, a real one this time. "Probably, I don't think you'd like me finding you and asking for you to open my door every time I need to get inside." She snorted, her face scrunching up.
