There is a fire at my temple. Those with powers connected to water would be especially appreciated.

(Panicking? No, she isn't panicking! She is gathering buckets of water, but carrying them upstairs is terribly taxing. Meanwhile one of her tower rooms is being devoured by flames.

Also, attached to the message is a map of her temple in approximation to those nearby.)

Serah, er, Eos. She's the Goddess of the Dawn.

[He takes the towel and dries his hands with it. Her instincts were correct to that point, at least]

[stonebird]

She sounds like a kind goddess. (How can someone who represents the dawn be otherwise? Sansa can think of many dawns she wishes she had not seen or experienced, but that was not the fault of the sun.)

Many of the Greek pantheon are friendly in my experience.

[steelguarded]

Yeah, she's really nice, although I have no idea what "Greek" means.

[stonebird]

Greek is the culture that worships your goddess. The Greek pantheon is filled with many gods and goddesses.

[steelguarded]

I'm... not sure I get what you're sayin'.

[When you live your life on an artificial planet-thing with one unified autocratic nation, the idea of different cultures is a bit foreign - whether or not you remember]

[stonebird]

Each culture has different gods and goddesses that they hold dear. Each deity represents some part of nature or humanity.

(It's complicated for her too, but it's best to just accept it.)

[steelguarded]

Oh, OK, sure.

[He sounds a bit dubious but he's at least accepted it for now. He is, in case it isn't obvious, a simple fellow]

Anyway, you think you and your friends are safe? Need anything else?

[stonebird]

Yes, we are out of danger now. I will begin cleaning and see what repairs need to be made. (As long as the floor and roof are intact, she will be fine.)

Thank you, Snow. Should you need my aid for yourself or your goddess, just ask.
