The Adventures of Rose Hood

Chapter 83: A Time to Rest

I remained under watch, but still refined my skills with Amy. I could see why Kala stuck with her. She was a wonderful person.

"So, Heather evolved me?"

"Yes, she did it so you wouldn't lose."

"Heh, she always hated me losing."

"Yes, it was very irritating."

"Though, how did you grow that much when the other gods hadn't."

"Because, unlike them, I have a true body."

"They have bodies too."

"See it more like an *AO avatar. Their mind is in it, but they can't fully interact with the world."

"I guess that makes sense."

"Yeah, it would take either absorption, or a will that exceeds mine and Kala's combined to actually kill them."

"I see."

"That's why I went into a rage when I saw Celios so injured, because I realized that his life was actually at threat."

"What was the garbled speech though?"

"It was like the V*idfish from The A*venture Zone."

"I know right?"

"Yeah, I don't know how to do it either, but it seemed as though he tried to disable it for me and Celios, as he showed annoyance when we didn't understand him."

"I see, so it's a selection on who can hear you."

"That's what I'm assuming."

"But are you Rose or Heather?"

"Currently I'm Rose, but technically I am a piece of Kala."

"I see, it's hard to comprehend."

"I agree but see it as Kala's mind being split into 10, and because we were named, we became fully independent, but Kala still reformed. We are just additional minds."

"That certainly helps... Think Aussie will be back soon?"

"Worried about your BF?"

"GAHK no!"

I smirked. Despite both of them despising each other at first, it was almost obvious that they liked each other now.

"Though I think I know how Granny works now."

I changed the subject quickly and it worked.

"What do you mean?"

"A long time ago, when I thought I was just a dragon, I swore loyalty to her, and I think I now know why?"

"Why?"

"Something about her is familiar, as though Kala designed her as someone calming to members of your original trio."

"That makes sense. Granny does seem very calming."

Then Kala corrected.

'Actually, you indirectly made her.'

"What?"

"What?"

"Oh, Kala just said I indirectly made her. What do you mean, Kala?"
