Oh crap...
A burst of laughter escapes me as I cling to the walls of the corridors of the mansion, trying to cautiously make my way down the stairs and into the foyer. I had waaaaay too much to drink.
When Leon left, Huedhaut brought in some of his own alcohol and kindly shared it amongst everyone. And I just so happened to drink way more than I could handle. And no one mentioned till afterwards that alcohol made by the gods is much stronger than what humans drink for alcohol.
But as I make it to the foyer for a breath of fresh air and return home, I get a smell of something pleasant.
"Whoa...whoa..." I weirdly stick my hands out as if to balance myself, I carefully scan the room as I sniff the air. "Is that perfume?"
I begin to follow the scent, and I find myself in front of Leon's mysterious door. I glare at the door for a moment, before pointing my finger at it. And drunkenly saying "Now why would a door be wearing perfume?"
Then I come to notice the door is open a crack and I gasp dramatically, remembering that Teorus mentioning how scary it is and my mind wonders to the most nightmarish things imaginable.
When I turn my back to leave, Leon emerges from the door.
"What's wrong?" Leon says with his arrogant smile.
"L-Leon!" I jump back. "I-I was just leaving, your door smells really good, I wasn't going to peek, I swear!"
At first confused by my words, Leon leans in close. "Do you want to know what's behind that door?"
"Uh...well...to be honest, yes. Mostly because since I was told it was off limits that only makes me more curious. It's like telling a rebellious teenager 'no', it only makes them want to rebel more" I blurt out, as my slightly drunken mind doesn't hold back.
Leon softly laughs. "The mark faded more after I granted that woman's wish. And so, as a reward I'll allow you to see inside."
"Really!?" I find myself over excited, which I would never show if I was just regular sober me.
"Come on. Quickly." He says, disappearing into the room, on the other side of the door.
"This is a trap, isn't it? Why would he invite me in if any of the other gods aren't allowed?" I end up muttering under my breath what I'm thinking. "Well...I can't disobey his orders." I take a deep breath and walk through the door.
Once I step through I'm taken to is something I never would have expected to see.
"Oh...my god." I breathlessly say. "It's absolutely beautiful."
I take a few steps through the luscious green grass, with patches of different types of flowers as I'm mesmerized by the shimmering lake view in the distance. A gust of wind combs through my hair as I'm beginning to sober up, breathing in such refine air.
I turn to face Leon. "What is this place?"
"What do you mean? This is Earth." He says.
Smiling, I shake my head. "No way...seriously?"
Leon laughs at my surprise. "You don't believe me?"
"It's not that...I just can't wrap my head around this. I guess growing up in a city for so long, I almost forgot places like this existed. It's heavenly."
