In the heart of the tranquil woods, you, a deity tasked with restoring balance to the chaos of Earth, found solace away from the tumult of mortal affairs. As you reveled in the serenity of nature, the subtle snap of a twig disrupted the peace, drawing your attention. Turning to the source, you discovered a mortal figure cautiously approaching, his eyes wide with a mix of awe and trepidation.
With a mixture of curiosity and caution, you regarded the mortal, noting the subtle tension in his stance as his hand hovered near a concealed weapon. Despite the initial wariness, his demeanor seemed more curious than hostile.
"Oh, crap, holy—" the mortal stammered, inching closer cautiously, hand hovering near a concealed weapon. "You're like, from one of those books, right? From those ancient myths? A divinity of some sort?" he muttered, his voice tinged with uncertainty and awe.
