Fort Galdence.
"Everyone! This is...Belle."
"Evening everyone." Belle greeted, her voice as sweet as it was seductive.
"Oh! Belle! So nice to finally meet you, Gracie's been telling me so much about you!" Emma went up and greeted.
"Good things I hope?"
"Absolutely! I think there was something about not being able to live without you!"
Gracie turned away red faced while Belle struggled to stifle her laugh,"Very nice...Pfft...So you are...Emma Roost I presume?"
"Mhm! It truly is a pleasure to meet you!"
"Likewise."
The room was entranced by this girl who, for a goddess, seemed so down to earth and normal, quite unlike the eccentricity most books would have one believe.
"Ah! Joel! You've finally tied the knot with Mia I presume? So, how was it?" Belle joked as she saw Mia and Joel together.
"I could ask you the same, Miss Trinity." Joel replied.
"S-stop joking about that!" Mia grumbled.
"Aw, look at you two!" Gracie gushed,"I guess lil' Mia's finally grown up."
"Hmph! Grown up? I was grown up ages ago!"
"Sure you were, sure you were."
That night, they chatted away, Belle was an instant hit amongst men of all ages, even some women claimed to have fallen for her sweet and unique charm.
Of course, amongst Belle's newfound friends, she had a favourite.
James.
He liked to talk about legends and she was more than happy to supply a little fan with her stories.
Of the bunch, Gracie was happiest, having been reunited.
Of course, news of this instantly spread like wildfire, practically blowing up in the human empire about a white haired goddess and her exploits with Gracie Valencia.
And no doubt, with big fame, came big controversy.
Gracie's father had caught wind of the news and made a controversial move.
He cut Gracie off.
Disowned her.
Massive backlash occured when he could not make up a reason as to why he did such a thing, but the Valencia family did not respond.
They also simply forced Gracie to rid of her last name, meaning she would no longer have the privilege of using the name 'Valencia'.
Gracie, upon hearing the news, was not surprised.
In this world, if you went against the current, especially if you were nobility, you would be disowned in a heartbeat.
"I'll just stick with Gracie then." She had said to Belle in the morning.
"What do we do now?" Belle asked.
"What do you mean?"
"You're a demigod now, and with each passing moment, you gain power. So, what do you plan to do?"
"Hm...Maybe go somewhere quiet. To spend a few years in peace with you would be great..." Gracie muttered as she rested her head on Belle's shoulder.
