B e l o w Z e r o
everybody's feeling warm and bright
it's such a fine and natural sight
everybody's dancing in the moonlight
To a degree, Bel understand enough.
The gods of this land where a little touchy for her, and while she respected Vespera, and her protection as the deity of Terrastella, she didn't know how much weight to put on the idea of the gods of this land. Not because she couldn't believe in that, but because she was a beloved of the Empress, the creature that breathed life into the first Treaders. Not quite a god, but the all powerful being of her home planet. Just like with how it seemed to be for Persephone, Bel's own past, her own connection to the Empress kept her feeling awkward about praying to something else. Bel had come to a decision of her own that it was okay to talk to the gods. But she didn't pray to them like she did to the Empress.
Perhaps somewhere, deep down, Persephone too had her own Pantheon.
But she couldn't just leave the mare struggle in the middle of a whirlpool, so she offered the suggestion of the library. "Yes, they might have something in there. And if you can't read the language of Novus, perhaps they will have books in a language you can read - that will help narrow down where you come from!" The glowing mare stated in delight, before briefly touching her nose to the other's shoulder, "We'll figure this out, one way or another. And the library is a good start." She nodded to the decision to meet in the early morning, Bel's smile warm even as Yukime seemed to slump at the news, "Perhaps just you and I tomorrow morning. Yuki isn't much for early mornings, might be best to leave her behind to sleep in." Yuki's grateful chirps and snuggles to Bel clearly pointed out how much she approved of that idea as well.
Bel stood then, stretching out as she glanced towards home.
"Oh, you don't need to thank me! Anyone would do the same! I'm just happy I could help." The mare assured, smiling kindly, "How about we meet here just after dawn? I need to head home to the swamp, Yuki and I prefer to sleep deep under the waters." She added, "I'll see you tomorrow morning! Bright and early. Don't forget Pers!" The mare stated with a laugh, before scooping up her sleepy companion with her tail, and heading home to the swamp for a night's rest before this new adventure.

Notes:: Closures have to have IC departures <3 So this will be my last for Bel, as I'll have her head home to her swamp <3
