Thalorra the goddess of the earth was a young god. Only a few thousand years old. Not young enough to escape the burden of marriage. In hindsight she figured she should have expected it, She had come of age years ago. It still didn't make it any less nerve-racking.
She was apparently being married off to a goddess similar in age and rank. She was currently sitting in the lounge room on fidgeting killing time waiting for the other woman to arrive. The wedding was only three days and this was supposed to be their first meeting. Which was not going very well if she did say so because the other woman was now 14 minutes late.
She looked up at the sky half annoyed and half nervous. "Is she even coming?" she sighed turning to her father, the one who had set it up and the chaperone for their first meeting.
