Seitaru'kai did not like it here. She never had and never would, especially after spending an interminable two weeks here looking for Mama Bwawa's parents. It was just so...stale. Aside from what gods came and went, there was no life here. It was creepy, if you asked her.
Quiet, though, and a little bit of quiet was good now and then, a little time away from her children. Not that she didn't adore them, but being children, they could get a little rowdy. They were old enough now that she didn't worry about leaving them alone on occasion. They were gods, after all; they'd be fine while she had her little nap. |

Kituko's ears caught the sound. The closest it could be compared to was something like fabric slipping; so soft it was easy to miss unless one was looking for it. And while Kituko wasn't quite looking for company, she was more worried about corssing the territory of another god.
Her head turned slowly, her solid black eyes catching a flash of white and purple. It reminded her of something slightly, but it seemed like she was fishing for a reason to know the goddess. Kituko knew very little outside of her own family, for when she had roamed the mortal realm, she had for the most part kept herself invisible. She never mixed with mortals well, not with how she had no control over her powers.
She peeked again at the goddess, curiosity poking at her mind. Well, perhaps she might get something out of the interaction; so far, most gods had been kind to her, if wary. Something she couldn't blame them for.

Kituko shivered. She had hoped that she wouldn't ask this question. There were many reasons as to why, and while she wouldn't automatically disclose all of them, it was simple enough to start with something, well, simple.
"Ah, well, the awkward thing is that I don't know his name," she said quietly, trying to keep her head up. "He's quite large, very red, and I remember black flames..." she could feel herself trembling now, trying to hold it back. She feared him more than she did her lack of control on her powers.

She shivered again when the goddess said his name. It stuck into her mind, blaring loudly in the memories he represented. Danger, pain, even fear. She couldn't help herself, perhaps because she was in front of Justice Or perhaps because it was lonesome, trying to do something by yourself, with minimal support.
With a tremble, Kituko extended her left foreleg, a strong marking crawling towards her shoulder. A red gem-like mass nestled itself there, a small swirl of power flashing in what light it could catch. She hated it, and hid it as best she could.
"He cursed me," she said, the words coming softly. "While my siblings are adults, and one even passed on his godhood to another, I've been in this form since I met him."

"He had a reason, and even I can understand part of it." She paused, knowing that this goddess, Seitaru'kai, must know something of her father. Or, presumed father. She hadn't dared ask her mother, but she had seen the look in her eyes when she stumbled back to her in critical condition.
"I caught him spying on my mother. I don't know why he was, and somehow he had been alerted to my presence." She felt the shivering start, and told her body to stop. She had to tell her, didn't she? "I...I don't have much control over my powers. It seemed better here, in the Haven, but.." Kituko closed her eyes for a moment.
"I can show someone their deepest fears. I don't know what he saw, but he seemed to panic. I think he meant to kill me, but somehow it turned into this curse. It's like time stopped for me, though I don't understand how he did it." And after the 'attack', he had disappeared.
