The Moon Goddess and Her Mate

Inside the Moon Goddess’ room,

A beautiful girl was looking at herself in front of the mirror. Atvertha was looking at her own shadow seriously as if she wanted to find something which still lacking in her. After a long silence, the virgin goddess still had not moved from there, as if something was still not perfect for her. An uneasy feeling began to appear in the young lady’s mind, although she did not know what caused it all.

“I can’t wait to meet Armen. Is it better to just wear another color dress today? It is weird. Why do I even feel I have to look special, huh? What will happen next?”

The violet-eyed girl fell silent again. Without hesitation, the only daughter of the couple of God Helion and Goddess Avtexia blinked once, and then the white dress she had been wearing changed to ivory yellow. Seeing the results of her actions, Atvertha smiled faintly, though it was in vain because the girl’s face still looked the same. The sweet memories with her lover came back to life, so that moment made the Crossroads Lady happy.

“Perfect. My man must be happy to see my new dress color. I want to surprise him. Before going to Earth, I have to check the situation first, so that no one will follow, then report whatever I do there to Mom and Dad.”

A young lady who was two hundred and seventy years old turned her attention back to the mirror. She was looking only a reflection of herself, and nothing strange had happened yet. Goddess Atvertha raised her left hand, then put her forefinger on the glass in front of her. “Tathvion nevth, agtheza vtert statzhe tatvezi.” [1]

In less than five seconds, the mirror in front of her changed. Such a situation did not frighten the silver-haired girl. She kept staring in the same direction as if wondering what would happen. Not long after, a familiar husband and wife appeared inside the mirror in front of the girl. They were in a room that was almost similar to her room, but it was bigger.

“Honey, I really do not understand our daughter’s way of thinking.” A slender woman opened the conversation. The Sun Goddess’ expression looked annoyed, so this situation attracted her beloved husband’s attention, who was not far from where she sat. Meanwhile, the Necromancy Queen was just observing their conversation and never took her eyes off her parents.

“Why do you say that, honey? What is it?” A man wearing a crown on his head and carrying a trident asked seriously. The wife seemed to exhale, but the Sun Goddess seemed to have done this on purpose because the opposite sex could hear her voice, which was quite loud.

“I really want to test Atvertha’s ability, because the lessons given will soon be finished, although not in the near future. One thing confused me; she has not even decided on a life partner yet, even though our daughter really needs that. Toghnath is really interested with Atvertha, but she is cold and always rejects his presence. I do not know what to do. Should we introduce another god to her, Honey?” Goddess Avtexia answered.

However, the blue-eyed woman still looked annoyed, which made the opposite sex even more curious. Meanwhile, Atvertha continued to listen to the conversation and feeling annoyed began to arise after hearing the name of the God of War, which her mother mentioned earlier.

“Hm … as for the idea of introducing other gods to Atvertha, I do not think it is a good idea. Our daughter is a quiet girl. She does not like socializing with the opposite sex, so I am also confused about how to make your plan work, honey.” The four-hundred-and-forty-year-old man spoke his opinion, so the wife fell silent as if thinking about all God Helion had said.

The situation in the room became silent because the husband and wife conversation had stopped. However, the Moon Goddess, who had been listening to the conversation between God Helion and Goddess Avtexia, remained calm, even though one eyebrow raised on its own. The violet-eyed girl had not seen any change in the attitude of either of her parents, so that Atvertha’s lips, which were initially tightly closed, now began to open slightly, as if she was about to say something.

At that time, Armen Faustus Lugthna’s lover suddenly stopped because she heard words from her biological mother, which forced Atvertha to listen carefully.

“If indeed our weird daughter does not like Toghnath, then it does not matter. Before Atvertha becomes a full-time Goddess, at least she already has an immortal god as her mate. We can’t accompany our princess continuously because soon, the time to be separate from us will come, so choosing a life partner is very important for her and us. Do you have any idea about the suitable candidate, Honey?”

As soon as possible, the maiden’s heartfelt annoyed because she was unhappy with these words. However, that young lady just kept quiet, holding back the anger already beginning to be felt. The memory of her being with her mortal male came back to mind, so that Atvertha’s longing for Armen became unbearable.

“I agree with your idea, honey. I know several single gods who are smart and handsome. As far as I know, they do not have a settle lover, so this situation will make anything is easier for us, if one of these gods falls in love with Atvertha. What if we just arrange a meeting with them but make it informal, like meeting at a party, for example?”

The Sun Goddess suddenly nodded when she heard the husband’s suggestion. Meanwhile, Atvertha could only snort as he hated his parents’ conversations more and more. She was tired of all this nonsense, so the Moon Goddess started chanting, “Stavezt! Agmentho!” [2]Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

A light appeared from within the mirror, so the image that had been there before disappeared immediately. “Tsk! Why do Mom and Dad always think the same? They do not seem to get tired of setting me up with an immortal god. I already have a boyfriend, so there is no need to look for another man. But… they still do not know about my special one.”

The girl, who had a height of one hundred and seventy-five centimetres, looked back at the original object, then looked away in another direction, precisely upwards. The sun’s rays entered Atvertha’s room and felt so dazzling. Such a moment made her think of a goddess who was living in the Underworld. “No wonder Nyx hates sunlight. I feel the same thing too. I hate this glare and heat.”

In less than a minute, the virgin goddess left the mirror area and then walked towards the door. Upon arriving there, without further ado, a slender woman opened it. The breeze hits the skin and dress worn by Atvertha. It was so quiet there that the wallflower girl was tempted to check something. “How are things down there, huh? Is it already night there, or is it still evening? I want to see my mortal male.”

The thin-lipped woman turned, and she saw the situation below. The sunlight had just disappeared, so it was starting to get dark there. Goddess Atvertha saw everything that happened on Earth from where she really was. Soon, the moonlight appeared there, which made the atmosphere a little better, even though it could not illuminate the Earth one hundred per cent.

That young lady smiled faintly as if she could see someone down there, even though her lover’s form had not yet appeared. “I can’t wait to meet my love. Should I go there now, so I can come back here sooner, so I will not disturb his rest schedule? I am an immortal goddess and I do not need to sleep like him. I feel pity for Armen, because he always wants to see me every day, even though he has to sacrifice his sleep time just to be with me.”

Goddess Atvertha looked around in all directions. The single lady seemed afraid that other people knew her whereabouts. Once it felt safe, the girl who could see in the dark started chanting, “Agmentho!” [3]

The body of the only daughter of the couple God Helion and Goddess Avtexia disappeared from sight. Meanwhile, without Atvertha knowing, a black-haired man seemed to be watching from behind a pillar in the palace of the God of Sea. The three-hundred-year-old youth had indeed been observing the movements of the opposite sex, and all this was done in silence. He frowned, remembering the odd behaviour the Moon Goddess had made.

“Ha! It turns out that my guess was correct if there really is something strange about my girl. Where will she go? I have to follow her, so that later we can find out what Atvertha has been doing on Earth all this time.”
