Sei was pulling everything off the stove as her timer blared in the background.
She wiped her brow of sweat and smiled at the bountiful harvest she had prepared through her blood, sweat, and evolved tears.
"Looks good."
"AAAHHH!!"
Sei nearly jumped out of her skin when she heard a brand new voice coming from inside her kitchen.
At some point, her home had become filled with a whole host of visitors.
Nyx, Aubrey, another of Thea's wives, Jasmine, Nemesis, Keres, and Malachi's ghostly father, Marcus, and his mother, Felicia.
"O-Oh, you're all here!" Sei beamed. "Welcome, welcome! I was just-"
"Where is brother? I come bearing a gift as I am told it is customary."
Keres loomed over Sei with a domineering and intense aura.
Granted that was pretty standard for the demon-winged goddess, but somehow this felt a bit more over the top than normal.
Sei was going to surmise that the reason for her overexcitement had a lot to do with the equally oversized gift she was holding.
