Abellio was thrown down over the sand once and for all, the grains falling out from all the orifices in his body.
"What... is the... meaning of this?" Medv shouted as the Tir Na Mabi slowly fell apart.
From behind her, an even greater woman appeared with long green hair and wide black eyes. The stranger smiled as she tore through the fabric of space around Medv, her giant hand wrapping around Queen Medv's neck. "You're pretty disgusting, Medv. Making everyone gang up on your old husband like that! I have officially lost all respect for you. By the way, it's nice to see you again."
"Morrganne!" Medv screeched.
"In the flesh. Well... in everything, really. In everything greater than this dimension. You see, I have gone around through all of the Earth while I've been away... to create covenants with mortals. I made more covenants than you did... and when I even found some humans who worshipped you... I got them to worship me as well. So now... I am more powerful than the Tir Na Mabi itself. I am greater than this dimension... and you will finally fall down to me like an ant, Medv.""Wh- wh- wh- what?" Medv fell to her knees just then as a giant arm tore through her heart.
"My queen!" Airmidon flew up, his dark grey wings protruding back out from his shoulders. "How dare you!"
"Just... in... time, Morrganne." Abellio lay on the beach, regaining his breath. "But. BUT! DANU!"
In and out, in and out. Violently, Morrganne sprayed Medv's ichor all over the beach below the two goddesses as she pumbled the insides of Medv's sternum.
"I fear that if Morrganne gets any more aggressive... then we'll all be done for. Returning to Earth in our human forms... but with no God forms to fall back on." Belenus put his palm up to his face."What? What do you mean? What does that mean?" Chloe held Belenus's arm tightly.
"Think about it, dear. If the Tir Na Mabi is destroyed... so goes our jurisdiction. Our initial nature. We will all fall back to Earth as Mathias, Bel, and Ms. Vitna... but with no recollection of our original selves."
"Oh my." Adalhelm nodded. "That sounds... tough."
"Well," Belenus forced a smile. "let's hope you don't mind Mathias again, Chloe dear!"
Chloe shook her head. "I... wouldn't. I would't mind him. But I also... don't wanna lose you."
"Then here's to hoping that Morrganne keeps herself under control. She's already killed Medv."
"You sure about that?" Adalhelm winced as the sky filled with the blood, sinew, and ichor of the once powerful goddess.
Belenus simply pointed to the sky as Medv's giant head fell to the moist shores. "No, Adalhelm. I'm not. But I sure as hell am sure that Morrganne is!"
Adalhelm squinted. "Alright, smarty-pants."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Dearest apologies, Dragonthread. I just... couldn't resist."
Silence. Peace. Evrich and Tanaka looked to one another and smiled. The two strangers then looked back to the gods who were talking amongst themselves.
The calm rocking of the shore. The sound of wind. Yet it all had cracked a tad since Morrganne's entry into the dimension. So it appeared fragmented and spooky... yet peaceful nonetheless.
"Wow. Morrganne... we... can't thank you enough!" Abellio stood up just then.
"Abellio, you were an amazing ally in all of this too. And Belenus... thanks for fixing Mylas' issue. He needed you to help him get over his wife. Nonetheless... this victory feels... empty. Too quick. Too much like there's all the more reconstruction to be doing, you know? As opposed to celebrating a victory." Morrganne looked down at all of them, her voice cracking more of the environment slowly.
"I-" Abellio choked on a knot in his throat as he teared up. "I know. Danu."
"Oh my word! I can't believe I'm still alive." Airmidon flew around the beach. "Oh happy day-"
"YOU!" Abellio threw vines over and caught Airmidon by the ankle.
"Oh motherfu-"
"Bring her back to life. Now. You can do it, can't you? DO IT!" Abellio belted and gritted his teeth. "I command you! I... God- I- I, God of the Apple Trees, command you to bring her back to... life!"
"Alright, alright, alright, alright." Airmidon shook his hand over the deathly Danu. "Um. Slight issue with this though."
"What?" Abellio spat.
"Uh -- oh no please don't hurt me -- uh... Danu's been dead for quite some time, yeah? Yeah. Um. Uh. You see... I can bring people back... to life but... depending on how long they've been dead... odd things may happen." Airmidon's lips quivered.
