The day I arrived in Avalon Isles, I was greeted by Indra, one of the foreign gods. I rembered him saying he was a Hindu god or sothing.
I couldnt help but groan when I tried to rack my brains on the information regarding the man. We were quite close back when I was Nyxtriel and hung out a lot of tis in Liada or in different parts of the Celestial Realm.
Information regarding the foreign gods was quite confusing and chaotic. The first ti I learned of the foreign gods, I had a major migraine. No, it wasnt the fact they were from a whole other universe, but because everyone that ca was so diverse.
From what I heard, Earth had a variety of culture and belief. There were also many civilizations throughout its history so even their pantheons were a bit of confusing. Therefore, they had different kinds of gods each with different attitude.
Nonetheless, I was glad to see Indra again. I even wondered if hed ever spar with just like old tis.
Anyway I was told to stay in Peach Mountain, which was under the jurisdiction of Xiwangmu, which I didnt really mind. The sea of peach trees surrounding that dotted the mountain and surrounded the cabin I stayed reminded of my ho in Liada and my favorite pavilion in Celestine Territory.
Sun Wukong told to be familiar with Avalon Isles, which would be my ho for a considerable amount of ti.
-I guess thats sothing.
On one of my walks to the other parts of Avalon Isles, I t Hers and Apollo who were both trying to annoy Dayang Masalanta, or what she preferred to be called Maria Makiling. I knew Apollo had this playboy nature in him since he used to flirt with until we beca official friends. I didnt really know Hers or Makiling though. I did not have much interaction with them.
Ah, Nyxtriel! Apollo called with glee and imdiately went to my direction. I heard you arrived but Athena told us to only have a small welcoming committee so it was only Indra and Athena who ca to welco you.
Hers bounded close to us, followed by Makiling and the two then introduced themselves to .
You mustve been startled to find yourself inside the carriage spirit. Makiling said after her introduction. I couldnt help but be at awe at her beauty.
I knew the foreign gods that sought asylum in our world had other worldly beauty, quite literally too.
-Shes probably the kind of woman who will have birds and animals surround her whenever she sings. I can feel it.
Youre the fox goddess Nyxtriel right? Hers asked as we settled down on one of the many benches scattered in the area.
Uhm my soul is. Well, technically Im no longer one since Im inside a mortal body but Im going to find my tails scattered all over the world to regain my power.
But youre still a fox. he replied, with a grin on his lips.
Erm yes?
Foxes are tricksters, are you one?
I was confused at the question. Foxes had always been considered cunning and were sotis regarded as tricksters. It was the reason soone cunning would sotis be called foxes.
Then there was the vixen. I dont want to get associated with that word.
-What is he on about?
Why? My answer will depend on your reason. I said with a pointed look.
Were planning on pranking soone, you in?
I admit, I had been quite the good girl lately. But Hers words struck like lightning and awoken sothing in . Sothing I never thought would ever resurface again.
That sothing was the love of playing pranks.
I flashed a grin on the duo (Makiling left soti during the conversation). Tell the details.
We ended up pranking Horus, an Egyptian god, by replacing most of his prized weapons into rubber weapons. He was screaming bloody murder when he found out about it. We returned his weapons soti after sunset to stop the screaming falcon-headed god from destroying a part of the island he was living.
Good news though. Horus never really found out who replaced his weapons. And he still doesnt know who did it until now.

Fast forward to three years, I got acquainted with Thor, the Norse god of lightning. He was a big man with a booming voice. He was quite hard to deal with at first, but since I had to spend so ti with him to learn evasive maneuvers (avoiding his lightning strikes). Since I knew him, I also beca quite close with Sif, Thors wife.
My hamr? Thor questioned when I asked him about his hamr one ti. Mjollnir was given to by my father as a symbol of status as well as a weapon to strike down my enemies.
All of a sudden, he started sobbing which was the first ti for to see. I couldnt help but panic a little when he started mumbling sothing I couldnt really catch. Sif was imdiately by his side, soothing him down.
I apologize for that Lady Nyxtriel. Mjollnir was given to Thor by the All Father, and he treasures it dearly. As you are aware Odin is plagued by a magical sleep at the mont and Thor is quite distressed about it.
-Right. I did hear that one.
I did not press further for information since I wasnt really the type to be nosey. We did stay as friends and would hang out from ti to ti, sharing stories with each other.

I dont like this.
It was a year after I trained with Thor. I was trying to find a way to achieve a great deal of concentration and improving my ntal prowess and internal energy by ditating. I asked the Chinese gods for advice since their Cultivation was sort of similar to my Mystic Arts. Most of them agreed to teach on that regard but there was one condition; I had to wake up soone called Buddha from his century-long ditation.
It was the reason I was standing in front of a closed stone door with no way of entering it.
I really dont like this.
I could feel a strong energy behind the doors. And despite my improvent in both my physical prowess and abilities, I couldnt help but be nervous at the massive energy.
-This Buddha guy is probably really strong.
The doors suddenly shook and slowly parted, as if inviting to enter.
I shouldnt have agreed to this. I grumbled, but I entered anyway.
