Freya brings her hands back to the sphere and motions for you to do the same. She leans in and a thread of light passes to her forehead, not electric this time but radiant. “Yes, yes, I feel her, she’s speaking to me, I will convey what she’s communicating now.”
She speaks quickly but in her own voice, she seems to be struggling with some of it but otherwise seems satisfied by the translation, “the demons and spirits of this world have begun doing as they please, war is rampant, the nobles sit idle playing out their fantasies, fighting amongst themselves and those who are the most precious and vulnerable are harvested like wheat out of season, never given a chance to ripen to their full potential.”
She pauses and takes a breath, “for you I have collected the finest grass, and it is your job to shine your light upon them and give them the chance to ripen in time.”
She stops and thinks a moment, "I'm sorry but my translation is a little... lacking, it's the best I can do because she's using concepts that have no parallel here."
She continues, “I am not asking you to give up your quest for peace, I am instead offering you a choice and guiding you the way I believe you should choose. One path will guide you to growth, power to save, power to bring peace, power to resolve crisis, comradely, joy, and countless lives saved… till harvest? No, she doesn’t mean that, she means more like, so they can spread their seed and bring about a new generation of… joy. Sorry again, her thoughts are very beautiful but also complex.” She clears her throat, “I want you to show your light to this dark world.”
Freya looks happy to have translated that, "oh, that's good! I like this goddess of yours."
She continues, “The other path will bring you peace and for, no… but for you alone, you will live a quiet and solitary life, free from strife, free from choice, free from violence, and the world will continue to darken around you until it finally overtakes you with…" she gulps, "overwhelming force leaving only pain, suffering, loss, destruction and darkness.” Freya cringes slightly, “so it is your choice to make.”
Freya let's out a long breath as if trying to clear her mind and quiets. She starts to shake and then breaks free again. "I think this SheShe is doing things behind the scenes, she's in a place immune to the influence of other gods and they're not at all happy about that. Eldath tried to interject but she was blocked somehow."
