A dream, dreams often lie on the tip of your tongue, yet, why is it that they become so very difficult to remember?
As though you’d lived a life you’d just forgotten, incurable amnesia of memories so strange, beautiful, painful. You may recall flashes, you may recall the entire dream you experienced.
They remain, however, only that. Dreams. Figments of your imagination.
Things to enjoy during the night, and forget during the day. Yet, what Shikiria experienced was no dream, though her imagination played a part, they were ultimately a great lesson. Her first of many steps through the path she now walked.
Her eyes awakened, which stung briefly from the tears that adorned her face meeting briskly with the mountain air. Causing her to blink, and wipe her face with her sleeves. The vision she had clear as day within her mind, yet the burden she bore mostly gone with the wind.
“Suwako? You there?” She questioned, looking around, and, rather unfortunately, finding herself still within the gods former form, and even more unfortunately. Not receiving a response.
Yet… the body felt more natural now. Even just a little more. Shikiria’s senses seemingly reached around… and upward, turning to face the clouds, she felt it, she could touch it.
That lightning that took her so long to learn… now bent itself to her will. With a hesitant smile, a small crackle of thunder echoed above, as though to acknowledge her presence. She reached upward. Her heart beating in her ears…
“Already getting started kiddo?” Suwako’s voice sounded from Shikiria, causing the woman to jump slightly. Her head swimming with questions.
“What? Where..” She questioned curiously, looking about the scenic mountain. Yet finding no trace of… “Suwako?” Her voice sounded suspiciously as she eyed the hat she’d thrown away. Those eerie eyes staring at her. Or… at least she thought they- “ Yes, indeed.” It spoke! That… was probably the freakiest thing she’d ever seen.
“You’re more or less already a god… your divine power however is abysmally low as of yet, so creating a physical form would have taken time… such time we don’t quite have. That’s why I gave you that form.” The hat explained, causing Shiki to raise a worried brow.
“ Wait.. I thought you said that if I stayed too long in this body…”
“You would have merged with my essence, had you not become a god yourself. Weren’t you listening?” The hat teased. “ Well. Regardless. You’ve completed the transformation. That form is my gift of divine power to you. That you may sustain yourself for just a bit without the prayer of followers.”
“What..? So… hang on.. I’m a god now? That’s it…?” Shikiria asked once more. Unconvinced.
The hat rolled its eyes, yet Shikiria didn’t feel any annoyance from it. “Didn’t you feel it? That new feeling in your chest? That connection to your Domain?” She questioned the Divine fledgling. Who looked upward.
“That’s… my Domain?”
It took her a few moments of silence to realize the weight that held. She was a god, a god. That…
She chuckled slightly. Taking a large deep breath, and closing her eyes. Enjoying her new form. Enjoying the clarity her legend, her visions granted her.
That inspiration would of course be fleeting. But she sensed she was more than ready for the world at large now… at least in some small capacity. She could see the future ahead, fraught with dangers, frustration. But, that was life, and would of course, allow her to grow.
In this sense. She felt complete.
In this sense alone. She felt alright.
“Well… if you’re done, Shall we actually get started?”
Turning around, Shikiria hastily nodded.
