On one morning in Orario the people were going about their daily lives, the shops were open, adventurers were adventuring, and the city was thriving. But for one woman, this day would not be the same as what she's accustomed to.

Ganesha: And so I have decided to have you take the day off!

Shakti: ......................That's a nice joke kami-sama. So why did you really call me in here?

The captain of the Ganesha Familia was called to her patron deity's office. She was told by the messenger that her god had some matters he wanted to discuss, being the responsible person that she is, Shakti immediately went to her god's office the moment she was called.

But what she was told was not what she was expecting.

Ganesha: That is not a joke shakti dear! But that's not to say I cant make a funny joke when I try! Because I can! Because I am Ganesha!!

Shakti: *Sighs* If this is what you called me here for I'm taking my leave. I have things I need to do.

Ganesha: Oh hold on now hear me out.

Shakti: Like I've said a dozen times before I don't need a day off!

Ganesha: Well that's not what the others have been saying. They said you've been more temperamental lately, and that your focus is slipping.

Shakti: I want the names of those who said that if you don't mind.

Ganesha: Now now my dear captain you know I cant say that, for I Ganesha have a promise to uphold to the people!!

Shakti: *Sighs* Well whatever I don't need a day off.

She began to walk out of the room before she was stopped by Ganesha who blocked the door.

Ganesha: Im afraid I cant give up that easily Asfi!

Shakti: Nothing you say can make me change my mind.

Ganesha: Is that so?

Shakti: It is so.

In the central park in Orario Shakti sat down on a bench. passerby's cant help but stare at her as they walk by. She was wearing a dark blue dress with smooth and shimmering fabric adorned with silver threaded lines that makes it looks like constellation lines with the skirt of her dress flowing like a waterfall blowing with the wind.

Shakti: *I cant believe he managed to convince me! That stupid old fart saying stuff like removing his blessing as a threat! Seriously Ganesha-sama can be really persuasive when he wants to. And this dress! So embarrassing!*
