Chapter 18: Geien

I watched on in horror as Helemoira was molested and beaten by a band of common thugs. She screamed out as blood coated her lips and it took everything within me to resist running to her side that very instant.

If I went to her now, I would forsake my throne, my crown. I may never be able to return to my domain, to my home. I did not know how the domain of the God's worked when it came to this. I had never left my throne longer than a moment and so I did not know...

But then they struck her again and again and her pleas grew more urgent. I knew then that if I did not intercede, she might perish before my very eyes. I didn't know if I could live with myself if that were the outcome.

"Geien!" She cried my name and that was my limit, the testament to my strength as a God.

To The Three Hells with the consequences. There was no way I could sit idly by and watch my High Priestess be desecrated and abused. What kind of God would I be if I allowed such an injustice to take place?
