It took longer than Athenia expected, but her explanation about what was happening in the heavenly realm was finally over. She'd laid down her true identity as well as her intention to put a stop to the forces of evil so she could talk diplomacy with other gods. Obviously, the news struck the party like a ton of bricks, but with no concept of time in Athenia's mind realm, eventually, they came to accept her words as the truth.
"And you expect us to trust you after you lied to us for so long?" Raven amongst other members of his group was far beyond pissed about the situation. "You hogged another god's faith from her people, you kept her alive in their mind, and we're supposed to help you keep the lie going?"
Leaning back into the chair with a sigh, Raven glanced across everyone's face painted with scorn. Even Erika who was praising Athenia not long ago was gritting her teeth as though holding the urge to lash out in the goddess's face.
