Chapter 14 Sedna 1

*Gulg* *Glug* *Glug*
Waiting for the water to come back again.
*Gulg* *Glug* *Glug*
It's the same boring process. After repeating this for who knows how long, it's now an effortless thing to do. In fact, I've been at it for days without feeling the need to sleep. I guess this is a sign of improvement?
In any case, I just needed to absorb a little more of this sea before I could pull off my escape plan. It shouldn't be long now, a few more days at most.
The water was filling back nicely and satisfaction swelled inside of me. The time it took to fully cover the area absorbed was taking longer each time. I wonder if there would be any use for so much seawater now that I've absorbed a significant amount.
"Wait!"
Good creation! What was that? Unlike the bird or the animals around, that voice didn't reach me on a physical level. It penetrated straight to my very existence and invaded my mindscape.
"Stop! Don't absorb the sea anymore, please!"
Apart from the newbie who escaped as soon as he invaded my territory, this was the first time I heard another being speak. Was this another God?
My questions were answered. The being who spoke was indeed a Goddess. However, with my lack of knowledge for such things, I couldn't identify her. For a sheltered being who only lazed around for all its existence, my manners were quite rude.
The Goddess appeared from a vortex in front of me. She was huge! The bird was large. However, this Goddess was larger. She at least five times the size of the bird. Although she wasn't as impressive as the newbie God, it was still obvious that she was a powerful being.
Who was she?
"My apologies," the Goddess answered. "I am Sedna, the Goddess of this sea. Great One, please forgive my rudeness."
Great One? Wait... she can hear me?
The Goddess in question had green hair which resembled the seaweed that sometimes came close by the shellfish. Wait, that could just be her fallen hair washed up by the water. Sedna's body was covered in scales that resembled a fish's but the most interesting feature was her webbed fingers and toes. They reminded me of the frogs from the bird's stomach. However, I didn't think frogs lived near enough to the sea for her to absorb and transform. How did she get them?
"To answer Great One, I have not consumed any frogs or animals. I was born with this appearance as a Goddess from the people's belief. Also, yes I can hear you. All Gods and Goddess can hear you for you are the one true owner of this world. We exist because of you."
Wait what? One true owner... how? So many questions...
"Great One, if it does not displease you, could you allow me to bring you to my humble abode? We can discuss more in details there. The other Gods are in a frenzy over your disappearance, I would like to inform them that you are safe and sound."
Well... it's not as if I could do much at this point. Perhaps I could go with Sedna. She doesn't seem to want to harm me.
"Thank you Great One!" Sedna smiled and carried me in her webbed hands before plunging into the dark waters once more.
