Just why? Why can't she just meet a normal, simple fellow? Can't she have her own fairy tale? Can't she live happily ever after? Can't she just lead a normal life? Can't she have normal people's company around her?
Just why? Why on the Earth, only she had to deal with danger, everytime? Aiye. Be it that guy. This guy. Or that lady. Aiye. Can her life be more tragic?
[ Author : It's just the beginning, Aelin. Yet, you are already crumbling down. What would happen, when things will actually start becoming a little intense ?
After all, the devil in angel's disguise, Aelin Westfall, had pissed almost zillions of creatures. To whom, this poor Lady Kim has to confront.
Best wishes, to MC from Author. :) ]
( Author knows that everyone wants to know about the Earth's outcome too. But, Currently Lady Aelin Westfall's soul and Aelin Kim's body are under the recuperation period.
So, until and unless they both recover, Lady Westfall's soul gains consciousness. Until then, the Earthlings have to wait a little for that segment. )

Devmaya saw her defeated state and couldn't help but sigh internally. She should have expected this. After all, Lady Aelin has always been like this.
Firstly commit a sin, without using that little brain of her. Then, repent on that later on. While cursing the people nearby to her, to their very vanishment, for not stopping her or interrupting her, at the moment.
But, it's a universal fact. No one can stop or interrupt her, at that moment. Not even Celaena. Oh! Prithvi being the exception. The only exception, who doesn't stop her at all. As if saying, it's your life, live it to the fullest.
No shackles. No restrictions. Full Freedom.
~~
After seeing the very same expression on Aelin's face. Devmaya sighed internally. Then, pat Aelin's back and head a little. In order to comfort her.
If worse comes to worse, then she will bear the punishment on Aelin's behalf. As she can't bear to see Aelin getting hurt at all. Not when she is unwell, already
"Don't worry, Aelin. I am here for you. I won't let anyone or anything harm you. I will protect you, from each and everything. Okay! Just believe me." And Devmaya added lots of words, to comfort Aelin.
As for Prithvi, who was listening to all this, telepathically, misusing his power. He couldn't help but frown a little. At the fact that Devmaya is doing his duty.
Devmaya was hugging Aelin. Devmaya was helping her to come from that phase of fear. Devmaya was encouraging her. Devmaya was vowing to protect her.
But the thing is, he will never ever hurt Aelin, in the first place, to begin with. Then, why? Why is Aelin giving his place of comforting her, to someone else?
Just why? No he wasn't jealous or something. Hah!! Only those stupid humans shows such type of stupid emotions. How could he, the great Dietiness, be jealous of that powerless Ligress.
Impossible!!! He is just a little angry, because Aelin gave his place to her. Yep. It's just anger.
[ Author: It definitely is HES.
Prithvi : HES? What's that, human?
Author : Human Emotion Syndrome.
Prithvi : What do you mean, Earthling? (In the deadly calm voice, which couldn't hide his rage. )
Author : Sorry, deity. But believe it or not. This is jealousy, shown by Earthlings ( especially humans).If you don't believe My Deity, this one can give the symptoms,too.
Prithvi : Tell me.
Author : The symptoms are anger, which definitely doesn't exist in heaveners. The killing intent in your eyes, which only humans show. The dangerous aura, which definitely doesn't suit an angel.
You had been feeling sad without any reason. Then, the sadness turned into rage. And in this rage you will want to kill The Innocent Ligress, to vent your emotions.
Is this human, right?
Prithvi, who actually was reaching the stage III : You might be right, earthling. Then, you are the one writing our fates and story. Don't you think you should change this?
Author : '....' What is it, Lord?
Prithvi : We angels, don't show emotions. Yet you are describing my feelings way too carelessly. Do you want to die? ]
( As after that Author hides away. Completely. Ditching the conversation. )
~~
Hah!! Nevermind. And just like Author describes, he was already planning to kill Devmaya in more than zillion ways, just because she was hugging Aelin.
At the very least, that fake creature didn't touch Aelin. As she dislikes physical touch. Sigh, he has to sacrifice a little, he has to resist himself from harming that Ligress, or thinking about any idea that won't be in favor of Aelin. Since, he was planning to give Aelin some time, while letting this Devmaya protect her from that fake creature.
As she doesn't have any memories of her past. Plus, he doesn't want to take the step, it is required to bring back her memories.
So, he was bound to suffer from this HES, for a little longer period of time.
Poor deity.
~~
Aelin too hugged her tightly. And thus they rest like that, for the rest of the remaining hours. The conversation kept going, but Devmaya was the one, who kept talking and coming up with topics to keep the conversation running.
Most of the time, Aelin would nod or hmm , to show she is listening actively. Since, she hasn't been able to relate to even a single part or thing. So, she chose silence above words.
After all, Devmaya was busy sharing her experience in the battlefields, her stories were full of violence, bloodshed, torture and all. But she won't forget to express her gratitude towards Aelin, who taught her those skills. Making Aelin baffled every now and then.
For the first time, Aelin Kim didn't feel hunger, thirst or fatigue. But she still didn't notice these little changes. She thought maybe she has to face something tomorrow. Well, practically she has to. So, it would be great if she prepared herself. After all, it's not like she can go back to her family, her parents and hide herself in their embrace.
~~ The next day~~
Aelin, who was sleeping till now, next to Devmaya, was shrugged off loudly yet tightly by Devmaya.
Come on, this was the first time. She had watched this Phoenix sleeping. As this Phoenix doesn't rest. All that she does is practice. Practice. And practice.
Aelin, who was shaken off from her bed, to the point of falling down on the clouds, couldn't help but rub her bum, lightly. As come on, this girl just threw her out from her own bed, with that shrug.
[Well, Prithvi knows Aelin's problem of not having any memories. So, he created a halo of his powers around her. You see, for just in case, type situations. Like this one. So, although her wings, or her aura, or her power was still missing.
But, now she wasn't getting attracted by the gravitational force. Anymore. All thanks to the halo, which was holding her, protecting her, completely.]
