The Girl Who Fell From the Heavens

Traveling

Yula and Jesper walked up to Jiro, who was waiting outside Igiri's front gate. He waved to them as they approached. Jesper waved back, while Yula merely nodded.

"Hey, Yula, Jesper," he said. "You've grown. It's nice to see you."

"Why did you summon us?" asked Yula.

"I'm afraid I'm just the messenger," said Jiro. "The ones who truly summoned you are the elves to the north."

"Then why didn't you just tell us to go there?"

"Can't a man want to see his friends?"

"Yes. It's good to see you too, Jiro."

"Now, I don't know what exactly the elves want you for, but they say it involves another demigod."

Yula tilted her head and blinked.

"What could another demgod want with me? They have no reason to be jealous anymore," she said.

"I know," said Jiro. "It confused me too. You'll just have to go there and find out. But why don't you come in and enjoy the city a little bit first?"

"That sounds fun."

They entered the city and found Tina and Kira waiting for them.

"This is a nice reunion," said Jesper.

The five went to dinner together at the same restaurant they had eaten at two years ago. Yula was used to surface food now, so the high quality food was delicious, though she still felt the portions were a bit small. After that, they spent some time riding around the land outside the city. Yula still didn't care for riding, but Jesper seemed to enjoy it, so she was happy.

Yula spent the night in an inn. It was a nice inn, and cheap since they only needed one bed, though Jesper convinced Yula that it was not appropriate to sleep naked in an inn's bed, so she slept clothed and was slightly uncomfortable.

The next morning, Yula awoke before Jesper. He woke up soon afterwards, and they ate breakfast together. Then, they left for the North, where the elves lived. On their way there, a dragon attacked them. It breathed fire at them. Yula used her fire powers to part the flames.

"Jesper, hide," she instructed and Jesper ran away from the dragon and hid behind a nearby tree.

Then, she launched at the dragon and tore off its left wing. It slapped her with its tail, sending her flying down to Earth, She impaled it with rock spikes, then tore its throat open. Finally, she used world restructuring to put a hole in the beast's heart, killing it.

They then continued their way north.

They arrived at the border of the elven kingdom. A male elf was waiting for them at the border.

"Greetings, Goddess from Suja," he said, "and boyfriend. I am Talion, I will be your escort and guide during your time in our kingdom. Please, follow me to the capital city."

They travelled to the elven capital city without incident. The capital city was very similar to Igiri. It was similarly large and similarly crowded. The major difference was that the population was predominantly elven, of course. It was a little too crowded for Yula.
