Hello to whomever might be reading this. My given name is Lara, and I am the current incarnation of Athena.
I've gathered I am not the first to bear her name, and I'd be interested in learning more about my predecessor. What sort of god was he/she? As I've begun settling into her temple here, I've found quite a lot of things that they probably left behind, and I also thought that perhaps it would be right to return them if any were on loan.
And I would also like to ask about the community's feelings on something. Truth be told, I've only recently begun to accept that the supernatural is real and there might be a higher power(s) at work. At least, until I woke up here and was hit in the face with it. It's a lot to absorb.
I'm feeling a touch overwhelmed and I'd like to know what role you believe a god should play. I've my own ideas, naturally, but I'm curious what others think. Do you want to live up to the legends of who came before? Do you want to change those legends into something else? Or is there something else you believe about divinity? I'm curious, so please, let me know your thoughts. It may help me better sort out my own.

[And the answer to that next question is "no" - hence the abrupt pause as Sanji goes to find out. And it's a shame text can convey how few shits he gives about this.]

Either way, she uses the time to send a few links to mythology websites.]
Japanese god of the wind. I'll have basic books on Japanese, Greek, and Norse mythology ready for you this evening. Those seem to the the major groups represented here, at least.

I'm starting to think there's a god for everything
but thanks Lara-chan, I appreciate it

I'll see you later, Sanji-kun.
