Having spent so much time with her sister, and the predatory god, Fido had longed for a bit of alone time, feeling a strange taxing weight on her soul. The silence of the God's Haven was much more vast than she believed, from the stories from her parents, told to her as a child. Being a god who mostly worked with earthly beings only taxed her more, the feeling of her invisible chains missing from the shackles that bound her to others.
All and all, Fido had needed a break from everything. She had wandered from the beloved pair that had come with her to this land, for a slice of solace in the unnatural silence, and found her way to what appeared to be a small crudely snow fort. It was heavily uneven, and parts of it seemed to have gone missing due to time, but she had run herself empty far too long to moan about any inconsistencies.
Having found this to be good, she had let her weight take her and flopped into the white terrain, her dark blue pelt reflecting the light that shimmered off the snow around her. There she had been for the last.. however long had pasted, silver eyes looking at nothing, but everything at the same time, deep within her mind. |

It took a few minutes for the older goddess to realize that there had been another body in front of her, glazed over eyes focusing slowly as the sweet vocals tingled in to her senses. Blinking back the dryness a little, she lifted her heavy head up a tad to focus on whomever carried such a little voice.
After a moment of silence, her vision cleared, and where the fog reined once, the little goddess that they had adopted into their group came into vision. She was as bright as the sun, or a star in the sky. Brighter than any of her siblings, for sure, and they were pretty stellar themselves. All and all, the colours were always so endearing to look at when she came around the older goddess, making her feel a little better. After blinking back the sleep, she figured she would respond to the welcoming conversation.
"Your hair is uneven." She finally blurted out, and after a few moments, mental clarity came to her, and she shook her head, looking at the youth in front of her again. "I-I mean, Hello, little one. What brings you all the way out here?" It felt odd, to her, that one so young would be wandering this vast nothingness.

Fido couldn't help but chortle softly when her off comment sparked a ripple effect on the little one's facial features. Innocence was a virtue least found, and watching her exude it with every movement was kind of refreshing.
"Snow fort, hm?" she murmured, at the remark of the snow fort, her silver eyes lowered to the snow around her orange tipped paws. "So that's what this was?" she finished, before perking her ears and looking around, interest perked more on the little snow for that she had somehow found her way into.
"They've meandered for a bit of alone time, I'm sure they'll be fine where ever they've gone off too," she muttered haphazardly, as sort of a 'whatever they want' kind of vibe. She wasn't a baby sitter of her little sisters, or had she ever been. Just an organizer. "Tell me more about this snow fort though. I've never seen one before, so it makes me curious."

"Yep, this was a snow fort, but it's been a little while so I guess it's not very good anymore," she said, looking back the the remnants of the fort as Fido explained that her companions had gone off on their own. There wasn't really anything to say to it so she didn't say anything, but she was happy to talk about her snow fort.
"I made it a little while ago with my friend Boma," she explained, hopping around to the other side to get another look at how it had handled being abandoned for a while, "She knew me before, too. We made it so I could stay hidden without losing sight of the gates. Death makes me nervous." She nodded matter-of-factly and leaned back onto her hind paws to peak over the wall of the fort.
"It's not that bad," she commented thoughtfully, if you still had to stand up to see over it- at least for her- then it still served it's main purpose. It was just more of a pile now than a wall.

Boma . . a name that nagged the back of her mind like something that once was lost before. She had only heard of that creature once or twice when her mother was still around.
Regardless, listening to the little story Mtima explained, she couldn't help but want to see the perspective from the little one's range of sight. Lifting her body out of the little hole that the fort made, she hopped over the guard wall, after a good stretch. Looking over it from besides little Mtima, she nodded softly, the fort taking shape a little more from another perspective. Well . . a new perspective. It was kind of like a little sharp hill. Lifting her head, she looked over the edge of the snow wall, eyebrows raising as the gate hit her range of sight.
"I kind of see what you mean. . . but won't it be too small when you grow up big like me?" She posed, looking down to the bright goddess. "You're only going to be that size for a little while. Maybe we can build it up, in case we're here for much longer?" she posed. They could do it right this time. It could be level to make her internal demons pipe down.
This death creature must be a force, if it makes a goddess hide behind such high walls . . .
